Lots of mailist don't strip 'Reply-to', I totally don't understand why ASF does
this.
I believe people on mailist consciously communicate on public, it's less likely
they will send private mail just because of mail having 'Reply-to'.
However, lacking of 'Reply-to' burdens people much to track threads they
interested in. Maybe some people has good mail client that has usable search,
but don't forget there are still some people using poor outlook with nightmare
search.
I don't get it either. I'm used to hitting "Reply-All", but Thunderbird
simply has a button: Reply-List and that's what I use.
I'm also a member of lists like libvirt, but I have receiving e-mails
disabled. They rule is that you hit "Reply-All", so I get replies on
messages I've sent, but I don't get the rest.
I expect some people would want the same on this list.

It's not a surprise. If you read the notice I sent out, you would know it's a
expected problem when you're new to this policy.
-1 on revert to old policy.

I don't think that's useful.
I truly believe it's developer's responsible to keep track of
their own topic, but I also think make it easier for developer
to keep
track
is better.
This seems like an edge case to me... most of the time a
developer
that
contributes to a thread will remember to follow that subject (as
I am
doing
here). If that might be a problem, they have alternatives:
- CC themselves on messages they send, so they remain on the CC
list
- set up filters to label threads that include their name
Do these seem like better alternatives than altering the list
reply-to?
I agree with Brett here. Filters are a life saver by the way.
Also with the javelin branch merged, some of the envisioned
component-ization activities might enable a better mailing list
organization. This is all good stuff to consider and possibly take
care of
at graduation time if it still seems necessary. WDYT?
