PonyMail is literally "lists.apache.org". Only a few organizations use mailing lists like we do, so only we use the tool. The reporting tool also matches almost exactly ASF's needs. Others may use tools from Bitergia, etc. Fame and glory come to those doing high-profile projects, but nobody recognizes foundation work. I assume that this is why only a few sign up to maintain the foundation's needed tools. I might be wrong though, but this is how I feel about it. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
