OK. I'm sure this will probably bring upon a ton of responses, but let's hope they all stay on-topic. I'm not posting this to gentoo-project since I think it belongs here until this is agreed upon.
So, let's get started: gentoo-dev: This list is for technical discussion, primarily between developers, about development and development-related issues that directly affect the tree or current projects. For now, no changes are made to this list. gentoo-dev-announce: This is the announcement list for development-related stuff. Now, there's two ideas for how to run the list, that I can think of, but I'm sure there's others. - Make the list set reply-to to gentoo-dev and automatically copy any messages from this list to gentoo-dev... - Make the list *not* set *any* reply-to, nor strip it, and allow people to use the list to announce development-related stuff from *any* list... For example, if I'm about to start a discussion on possible changes to the releases, I could send a message to gentoo-dev-announce, which will start the thread, with gentoo-releng set as the reply-to. I would be responsible for making sure the email was also sent to gentoo-releng myself. gentoo-projects: This list is for... what exactly? I've not really figured that one out just yet. I know it is supposed to be pretty much anything that doesn't fit into gentoo-dev or another project-specific list. Am I correct here? Is this what everyone thinks this list is supposed to be used for? Anyway, I'd like for us to come up with an agreement on the usage of these lists so we can put them into the policies and start using them that way. Remember that there hasn't been consensus (yet) on the usage of the lists, so we need to do that as soon as possible. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
