Is that any different to other projects? e.g. Fedora developers use their developer list, rather than the user list, because that's their interest (making the software do what it's designed to do, however bad the design; rather than the day to day minutia about how to use it that the user list generally discusses, with far more messages than they want to read). Some projects have a plethora of different lists (design, debugging, admin, usage, advocacy) and you really do need to use the right list to get any results. Perhaps a consensus from one list may cross over to the other (e.g. a great design idea, once nutted out), but endless debate in the wrong arena goes nowhere. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
