As an outsider to the list, how do I know what your policy will be other than "I've been rejected out of hand by someone else's list, so my experience is that member only lists aren't willing to listen to something I have to say unless I make the effort to sign up and have yet another folder accumulating unread messages". I don't. Well, ok - maybe I do here since I've let myself be dragged in to the debate. Oops. I get the same information from both project websites: "moderated for non-members, public archives" - no way of knowing that ALSA will accept me informing them of something they would be interested without committing to reading or bit-bucketing their list. The alternative is to subscribe just long enough to send something and then unsubscribe again.... or cold-email a member and ask them to pass a message along. Or post and hope it doesn't get rejected, not even knowing for a day or so. Bron. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
