* Maybe a ports-bugs list would be more appropriate. * * If I send it to ports then I'd have to remove them from * bugs otherwise some people will get duplicates which always causes * lots of complaints. People who currently track bugs because they * want to see *all* bug reports might not want to subscribe to * ports and get all the added mail from it. * * I think there's good reasons to keep bugs separate from the other * mailing lists. * * Anyway, let me know what you want and I'll set it up, probably * not until next week though. Another Phd deadline this Friday and I'm * taking a few days off to finish the next draft (hopefully the last * one). I think if we can send PR's with category "ports" to both lists (-bugs and -ports), that would be great. One thing, there aren't that many PR's in category "ports", so there won't be that many duplicates. Your point about people subscribing to bugs to see all bug reports is valid. OTOH, the -ports group is more of a "team" than any of the other lists, and people on the list should be made aware of the bug reports coming in. Right now, there are a little over 200 people on the -ports list, of which less than half are subscribed to -bugs. (There are 300+ in -bugs and 500+ in -hackers.) What do other people think? Satoshi
