There will be people who won't notice that the meaning of debian-ports@ has changed, and who will try to use it with its old meaning. If there are problems with the current meaning of debian-ports, can't we just retire the old alias and create a list under a different name? -- It is easy to love a country that is famous for chocolate and beer -- Barack Obama, speaking in Brussels, Belgium, 2014-03-26 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
