Last night some of us infra-folk had a chat in #gentoo-infra about this commitlog-mailinglist. solar stated that the ammount of messages in the dev-mailboxes was the reason to shut down that list some years ago (I have to fetch my archives to prove that -- AFAIR we only had troubles with the script, as CVS moved away from our dev-box with local mail-delivery to a dedicated server). We thought about distributing the mails via a public IMAP-box or via NNTP only. But if that list is not too urgent, it might be the best idea to produce an RSS-feed out of the commitlogs. Somebody noted that we should include commits to other areas as well and not those to the gentoo-x86 repository only. So, if you can wait, I can search my minimalistic Perl-skillz and write a script for creating the RSS-feed. On the other hand we can just switch on the mailing-list and see how it develops… Regards, Lars -- Lars Weiler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +49-171-1963258 Instant Messaging : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gentoo Linux PowerPC : Developer Gentoo Infrastructure : CVS Administrator
