Okay, well if we are going to remove special interest topics, we may as well remove 99% of the mailing lists listed here: https://redhat.com/mailman/listinfo Clearly there in the past was a need for special interest topics, I havn't actually counted, but it looks like somewhere between 95%-99% of all those mailing lists could be considered special interest.
P.S..:In case it matters: my current opinion is that this list is fine to stay, but seems some people think different about it and I agree that it's worth to be discussed
I looked through those threads that you posted and did not see anyone but you questioning the need for the games list.
P.P.S.:I just want to make sure we have a healthy information flow in the project as a whole. Having separate communication channels sometimes can improve the "information flow" but sometimes disturb it. It's a trade off.
I think clearly labeling special interest lists with a format like: fedora-SIG-* would clearly differentiate special interest list against general interest lists. If the list is named fedora-foo, you know it is a general interest list. If it is named fedora-SIG-foo, then it is a special interest list. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
