'fedora-list' is busy enough as it is and when 'soap boxes' get pulled out, traffic gets even heavier. as i stated in my reply to rui, a reply was made to a 'fedora-announce-list' and it returned thru 'fedora-list'. yet for some reason, all of post that were made about not being able to make downloads, do updates, or log sites, seemed to have missed a reply to what they were posting about. to me, this is a lacking on part of posters. not a lacking on part of fedora or redhat teams. when i subscribed to 'fedora-list', i also subscribed 'fedora-announce-list', and several others. i did so because they were there and from their description i knew each had their purpose. time has proven this. i and several others replied to post about problems, yet others still posted they were having problems. not a fedora or redhat fault. to me, this only indicates that some people do not read all their emails, or only read what they feel is of interest. not a fedora or redhat fault. my only other suggestion besides leaving as is, would be a change to 'subject:', such as; [ANNOUNCEMENT], [SPECIAL-ANNOUNCEMENT], [SECURITY-ANNOUNCEMENT] being at start of subject line to bring, *maybe*, a better awareness of what is being sent by 'fedora-announce-list'. > I do not want to go into this too deeply until the current situation > has been resolved. maybe you should have waited? ;o) > I do not want to be a distraction.
