ARGH! I had no idea it was so easy to set up a bridge between forum and mailing lists. I'm cc:ing -devel-discuss to this because it seems to me that having a bridge to that list from the forum would save a whole lot of effort on the part of those Forum Ambassadors. Coincidentally, I wrote this on the bottom of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumAmbassadors the other day. Also, I'd be very interested in one for -doc. In fact, I'm struggling to think of a single mailing list which wouldn't benefit from forum input in this way. -- http://www.mdke.org gnupg pub 1024D/0E6B06FF -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
