-<para>The blfs-support list handles support requests for any software
-that is not built or installed in the LFS book. Any software beyond what is
-installed as part of the base LFS system can be discussed here.</para>
+<para>The blfs-support list is for the BLFS Book and beyond.
+
+It includes requests for help following the BLFS Book,
+requests for help with packages not (yet) in
+either the LFS Book or the BLFS Book,
+and other requests and discussion concerning software
+that might be installed on an LFS system.
+
+It does not include topics such as
+the price of beer, what hardware to buy,
+or GNU versus BSD or Microsoft versus Linux flamewars.
+These belong on lfs-chat,
+and since blfs-support is high traffic,
+please follow this rule strictly.
