Yeah, I don't get this. fedora-maintainers is pretty useful - high
signal, low crap. The proper reaction to things like this is almost
never _another_ mailing list.
It is pretty useful if you have the time to follow all the posts and
read everything. It is wrong-minded however to expect everyone with
lesser commitments to be able to read and follow everything on a busy
discussion list. For them, they could opt to follow minimally
fedora-devel-announce.
I'm half-decided on if fedora-devel-announce then kill
fedora-maintainers. fedora-maintainers has the benefit of having a
significantly better signal to noise ratio than fedora-devel-list.
There is however a detriment to the redundancy.
If folks were willing to be more MILITANT AND CONSISTENT in enforcing
the "devel only" rules for fedora-devel-list I might be happier about
killing fedora-maintainers. But consistent enforcement has proven to be
impossible to maintain in the past.
We should talk about this issues in tomorrow's FESCO meeting.
I've added it to the schedule.
Killing fedora-maintainers is part of the plan for the mailing list
reorganization the Board put on my plate months ago. The hardware for
that was promised for mid April. :-( Mike, any update when something
really happens?
BTW, I agree with the fedora-devel-announce idea as something like that
was part of the mailing list reorganization as well. But if the hardware
for that is not that far away (e.g. less then one month) I'd say we
create that on the new hardware directly.
Are we past the <non-technical blocker> of running our own mail server?
