I explicitly invite everybody who reads my web pages or uses code I publish there to send bug reports, comments, feedback, flames, ... per mail! Before you ask: I receive quite some mail from complete strangers, even bug reports. I consider the statement on <https://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html> | gcc is a high volume list for general development discussions about GCC. | Anything relevant to the development or testing of GCC and not covered ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | by other mailing lists is suitable for discussion here. as such an invitation too. Stefan JFTR: do you consider your wild speculations to be on-topic here?
