It's using the list for what it's there. If you think otherwise, please point to a more appropriate list.

Nonsense. I won't waste hours on writing a patch that gets just ignored. I don't have this surplus time. My only chance to influence things is to bring up my arguments. All else gets decided by Red Hat or "upstream" anyway (and "upstream" can be overridden by Red Hat again if they like... if RED HAT likes, not the community). > I'd like everyone here to take a few minutes and read recent > fedora-extras-list or fedora-maintainers-readonly archives. > That's what development discussions look like, and not > what one can see on this list. -extras isn't Core, and we discuss here problems with Core. -readonly is: <drumroll> READ ONLY </drumroll>. > Sending off-topic mail here > only means that development discussions will move to > more closed places (fedora-maintainers), or stay at more closed > places (internal Red Hat lists). Well, that'd just mean less marketing material to back up the "community distro" claim, that's all. We constantly hear that we're being ignored anyway.
