Could you split-up announcements like this into multiple announcements, so the subject lines remain a reasonable length, please? Particularly when there's lots of unrelated packages. If they're all in the same pkg-category or are otherwise obviously related, it's not so bad. But here we have rox packages, firmware, cluster, media, office, gnome, dev-sharp... all combined in the same very long subject that's well beyond any reasonable single-line subject length, making it very easy to miss something critical for the very people who are otherwise targeted, those who could be interested in maintaining those packages, as well as any remaining users who might like an early heads-up before they find their @world update broken due to now-masked packages that they'd have otherwise caught in the last-rites announcement. That request made, thanks for helping to de-cruft the tree. I'm glad someone's putting in the effort. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
