[alsa-devel] alsa-devel on vger
Hi,
What about the plan to move alsa-devel to vger? Shouldn't we do that soon?

Jaroslav hasn't yet pointed alsa-devel@alsa-project.org at vger. It's a little unfortunate that David wouldn't just transfer subscriptions as it seems that's where things stalled again. Given our still recent move from sourceforge it really should be okay to just move everyone over.
I noticed that the entirety of people thanking David for setting up the list consisted of alsa-devel moderators, you and me, and I suspect most other subscribers don't feel there's actually much wrong with things as they are today and mostly consider moving again a nuisance. The one other reaction to the move was a slightly annoyed reaction about the re-subscribing...
Want me send out a few "please re-subscribe now" notices to the list? Or a few "please all pester David badly enough that he'll take the list just to get rid of us" notices perhaps?
Rene.

I'm playing with idea to redirect alsa-devel@alsa-project.org to vger and leave current mailing list (which is subscribed to vger now too). So every e-mail to this list will go through vger, and resubscription will be only choice of subscriber. Opinions?

My preference would be to do what ever it takes to keep the lkml people from whining, while simultaneously keep their flame wars off our list. Seriously, I spent 6 hours weeding through that mess to see if there was actually anything relevant (2 out of 200+ messages in 2 days).
Maybe the thing to do is agree if they change their bug reporting email to bcc instead of cc. That way, flame retardant is in effect.
I second Tobin's opinion. That was unpleasant
