Probably this could be changed, but this would have some other impacts, like adding the list name on the submitted patches. Also, The list were created using the same config as all the other Linux kernel development lists. The previous experiences shows that having a different model on our development means more work and more troubles that could otherwise be avoided (for example, using -hg instea of -git ended to be a large source of troubles for maintaining it). What I do here is to create a filtering rule to split mailing list patches on a separate INBOX, based on this message header: X-Mailing-List: linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx If your emailer is powerful enough, maybe you can also prefix something at the subject when this header is seen. For example, on claws-mail, you can color the message based on a filtering rule. Cheers, Mauro. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb users mailing list For V4L/DVB development, please use instead linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
