[Sigia-l] [OT] Tagging things that are off topic

I agree - I think that tagging things that don't specifically have to do with big or little IA would make this list much easier to follow, and would encourage people to notice when they are posting something off topic.  This would certainly include to me the LDS posts, as well more coding related issues, as well as flippant comments about other people's more serious posts.  Honestly, the sheer volume of messages right now makes it a slog to go through even in digest form, and certainly precludes me from following the list in busy times.

This would allows those who enjoy a looser, more conversational style to continue to get tangential posts, but those who would prefer a more targeted list to ignore the less targeted posts.
