Howdy,

Because iOS is so restrictive/crippled if OS X became iOS I don't think you could develop iOS software under it. In any case I think occasional transgressions to somewhat related topics have always been tolerated on this list. I see no need to change the Name of the list or anything else. Reasonable email readers, including Apple's Mail, allow you to filter on subject and/or content, etc., and if it is so bothersome to receive several, even a dozen, emails that one finds uninteresting just kill emails with that topic/content for a while.

Again, I feel bad about bringing the iPad up at all. It was an example of something I don't like in Mavericks (or Lion or Mountain Lion) but which can be turned off in system Preferences->General.

Good Luck,
