Where is the difference in between a graphical window with github notifications (that i never have seen) and a -issue only mailbox looked at in a graphical mail viewer? I would have understood "it is all nicely scripted and there is nothing much to do except clicking around". Ok. (The emacs community now seems to have implemented a plain text format which offers this :-)) (I personally was "shocked" to see that the trivial patch i "issue"d caused lots of VM spin ups and needless test runs. The only "ok" from my side is that OpenSSL is so critical to the entire infrastructure .. of the internet as such .., but such a waste of energy, i would rather not cause automatically. Isn't that "too fat"? I mean it saves you as a developer one "test-compile this" click, shall github offer such differentiations.) Now .. all this could be implemented by replying to an issue email with a specific tag that the ML software filters out. Of course: that had to be done. But you are the developers, and you have chosen this way. So it may be. |I've generally stopped signing up on mailing lists, and am slowly |unsubscribing from quite a few, in an effort to make my inbox a less |painful endeavour to look at. That i buy, too. Of course. The dnsmasq developer said something like "[i] do not read the emails for some time, but it distracts me from coding". That felt familiar. (And not to talk about so many things and standards that really should be read in addition.) |I do still occasionally respond on this ML, when a subject line gets |my attention, but that's really quite rare.
