You may in fact wish to subscribe to gentoo-project after all, as there are a lot of people (myself included) hoping the traffic on -dev goes down by at least 50%. I'm seriously hoping there'll be few non-dev posts to dev, as while IMO non-devs should be free to post to -dev, it should be development-technical only. I hope peer pressure forces that, with a simple reminder that -project gets everything else, for any violators. IOW, both your post and mine should now be going to -project (I expect to be subscribing shortly). Ideally, there'll be little reason for us to post to dev, tho I hope it remains such that we can. If it works, there'll be little reason to go further with that moderation proposal. So, unless you plan on being read-only on Gentoo discussions, I'd suggest you do subscribe to -project, and strongly consider posting much of what you've posted here in the past, there. That's what I'll be doing. If it fails to work that way by peer pressure, it's likely to end up almost forced that way, and I really hate to see that happen. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
