well, that would be good to know. Like it would be good to understand what sort of topics we get on each lists. From what I see, the topics discussed on operators and on launchpad seem very similar to me. I'm leaning on the side of merging the two lists because even if the operators are a very specific, identifiable group of people, the discussions they have seem to be 'general'. I can run some numbers but I'm not sure what to look for. I can calculate the most frequent words in the subject lines in the operators lists (not on launchpad): would that give us an understanding of what discussions are being held there? How else would you mine the mailbox archives? > One thing to keep in mind is that the more divisions there are in a > set of things which are conceptually similar, the greater amount of > confusion that will result... a sacred truth. I know that technically operators are different than users different than firstcomers to OpenStack. The reality of human interaction though is that nobody reads the descriptions of the lists and messages end up being posted randomly. Generally more lists equals more crossposts (at best). /stef _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
