Ralf, I appreciate your opinions. But where did I say that that would mean "One way traffic"? That was and is nowhere written or meant. Just as fedora-extras-commit for example the fedora-maintainers-annouce list would have a reply to another mailing list where those that want to discuss something can discuss it. The plan was actually to subscribe fedora-maintainers to fedora-maintainers-annouce, so announcements show up on both list. >> Like it or not, but for some people fedora-maintainers has to much >> traffic; > Then they better should not be maintainers! > > This is Fedora, a wanna-be community project.

Those probably do not care if that much if there are two or eight steps to get a package pushed (as long as it's documented somewhere). You on the other hand do and you are right with it. But forcing maintainers to read a high-traffic mailing list just because they want to maintaining one package is likely something they care about. So let's please make package maintaining easy for them, too. > [...] CU knurd -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
