Dec 18, 2010 at 16:20 comment added Jorge Castro I agree too, it wasn't obvious to me until it was pointed out in the blog but it makes total sense. Moving from ubuntu-server to just "server" would be a nice too.
Dec 18, 2010 at 16:17 comment added Jorge Castro In my mind -server questions should be here if they're small "I run a samba machine at home" type things, and serverfault for pros that run machines for others (ie. sysadmins).
Dec 18, 2010 at 11:16 comment added 8128 Completely removing server questions (and even the tagging of such questions) seems beyond the scope of this particular discussion (though I note that 4% of the questions here are tagged server)
Dec 18, 2010 at 8:23 comment added Jeff Atwood if anything you should tag server questions [server] to differentiate them and assume most questions are about desktop. Beyond that, I don't know how different Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Desktop are in practice.. and what's so very very specific about Ubuntu Server that means you can't ask about it on, say serverfault.com ?
Dec 18, 2010 at 8:20 comment added Jeff Atwood I agree 100%, if the tag doesn't add anything, or worse if it is a meta-tag -- it should not be used.
