linux-audio-user:

I don't see a list owner or a terms of use policy for this list on what
I presume are the appropriate pages:

    http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user

    http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo

Who is the list owner?

What is the policy regarding personal attacks, etc.?

TIA,

David
