Hi All, second round in the process to solve the "we have to many mailinglists" problem (first round starts at https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-advisory-board/2006-December/msg00104.html ; diff against first proposal: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/ThorstenLeemhuis/MailingListReorganization?action=diff&rev2=2&rev1=1 ). Comments? If I some "yeah, I tend to like it" I'll post it to the relevant mailing lists asking people to comment before we realize it. == Remove == === fedora-packaging-list === Packaging is important to all package maintainers. Everyone should get involved and see the discussions and at least see the topics being discussed, thus do it directly on fedora-maintainers. Use a special tag like "[packaging]" to mark them if there really is a need to differentiate. === fedora-buildsys-list === It's quite a quiet list -- maybe we should leave it open for now until the plague/brew stuff is worked out, and then simply continue on fedora-devel, fedora-maintainers or fedora-infrastructure === fedora-extras-list === Well, it seems the "Core packages gets merged into the Extras framework" is nearly official. Discuss the stuff that was on fedora-extras-list until now on fedora-devel in the future. === fedora-test-list === A lot of people don't get the difference between fedora-devel and fedora-test list. And testing is a crucial part of the devel process, thus lets drop the test-list. == Rename == === fedora-qa-list == Rename fedora-triage-list to fedora-qa-list and use it for wwoods efforts and his recruits. == New == === fedora-project-list == We until now have no real list where Ambassadors, packagers, programmers, art-people and other contributors can talk to each other about general stuff that's important to the project as a whole without getting lost in the noise or scared away with "this is off topic on this list" calls. fedora-advisory-board somehow is this list, but it's moderated and thus even some project contributors that are not subscribed feel excluded (bad). /!\ Note: I'm not sure is this really is a good idea, but I more and more think we need a list where we can discuss the project as a whole especially with people that are not yet contributors == Not sure == There are some list where I'm not sure if they are still useful: fedora-desktop-list, fedora-games-list, several of the fedora-devel-foo lists = EOF= Just my 2 cent, but we really should discuss how to proceed with the mailing lists in the merged Fedora world sooner or later.
