Without moderators to move mismatching topic between groups any more
fine grained separation will do more harm than good. NG in its current
form is simply not a good tool for focused technical discussion and
won't be. "Get rid of OT" idea sounds like mockery to anyone who doesn't
spend his entire lifetime posting here because 90+% of NG posts are
absolutely irrelevant.
