Here's one way to help get some more attention for the discussion you want to have, even if it's on a list with a smaller audience. As with any other topic, feel free to post a pointer on gentoo-dev-announce to tell people: what (the topic), when (when you will start the discussion), and where (the list/channel). As long as it is an announcement (and not an opinion), -dev-announce should be a good place. Thanks, Donnie -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
