This was discussed between Warren, Jeremy Katz, and myself. The solution to the problem is to not create yet another mailing list, its to enforce the list for the purpose it was meant for. Announcements most often spawn discussions (see my announcement re dist-hg), having it span two lists or dealing with a readonly -> read/write list is bothersome and confusing. (yes, I know we have fedora-package-announce and fedora-announce set up that way, but those usually have less conversations attached to them). All maintainers should be on fedora-maintainers, so one should be able to announce stuff AND discuss it there. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
