I think this is a good idea. If the only thing that goes on -project is flame wars then the list will die and all the flamewars will just come back to -dev... I'd think that anything non-technical related to the gentoo distro that is at a high level should probably go on -project. That might be a place to announce council agendas, council nominations, this email thread, etc. Some seem to be of the mind that -project should be mainly for stuff that no developer would want to look at anyway. The problem with that is the whole reason that stuff gets posted to -dev is that people want to interact with the -devs - so the traffic will go wherever the devs are. If you want to keep -dev on technical topics then the interesting non-technical topics will have to go to -project so that the list is taken seriously. Otherwise all the noise will just be back on -dev.... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGoe59G4/rWKZmVWkRAndEAJ9NjInDoVCY/UW3e2P9KXccwf2ejwCePXd/ AbYUE2gK7B9fc0zpWZkr0SY= =3B7N -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
