[sudo-discuss] Proposal: Change in quiet hours policy

[Patrik D'haeseleer]

The main difference is that instead of having to worry about disturbing our
upstairs neighbors, now we'll only need to worry about disturbing the
nextdoor neighbors.

As a simple rule of thumb, how about something like this:

No power tools louder than a shopvac, and no music louder than a piano?
