Everything but gerrit-patches. I e.g. filter out the gerrit-mails and there stays enough on the list: Manual patches, ESC discussions, 10000-feet view code insight (the stuff that later leads to concrete patches). As a side-effect it will make the digest of the dev-list something that is sensible. > I would suggest to find a way to filter-put auto generated comment, > due to gerrit (like 'has been rebased'... and most of the gerrit > buildbot generated one... except the final 'result' one) filter-put? Sorry, I dont understand what you are aiming for here. > If one want a daily digest of a list, one can subscribe in that mode > to that list.. no need to inflict one on everybody by default. True. But a digest keeps some visibility of the gerrit activity on the dev list without drowning it and I assume we can generate a far better custom digest showing what is going on gerrit than a default mailman digest. > PS: the idea of being able to post a comment in gerrit via the ML > seems interesting.

I dont see how it is an argument for not having a separate ML for gerrit though -- people who love to work via email will subscribe that list anyway, those how do not prefer to do everything via email will not care about the ability to reply to a gerrit change being tied to a changes-list.
