I'm very confident that an open dev mailing list with topic-oriented policy would just work. I'm so confident because this is how the Gentoo dev mailing list works and it works well. To draw a caricature, trolling does not happen because devs ask others to talk with code. And I can't believe the Arch Linux community has more flamers than Gentoo's community. I tend to think it's quiet the opposite as the Gentoo community is wider. > We simply cannot allow that to spread to arch-dev-public, even if we all > agree it is too bad that some people with considerate opinions are not > allowed to post there just because they aren't devs. Things can change! ,-) -- Nicolas Sebrecht
