I'd second keeping fedora-packaging as is. The charter is discussing about packaging, not (specific) packages. But Thorsten has a point: All packagers need to know what happens over there - same is true for some other lists, too. So I suggest to have a developer/packager "announce" list, where various boards, sigs and so on can *tersly* communicate *results*, e.g. important board/fesco decisions, packaging guidelines changes, infrastructure/buildsystem changes etc., but keep the discussions in separate lists as happens now. fedora-devel-news? But before continuing on thinking about mailing lists structure, perhaps one should wait to see what the upcoming organisational structures will look like to start mapping them to lists, or to deduce some list structure out of it. I guess the most important and communicative organs do need to keep dedicated lists for a good SNR. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
