Re: [Gimp-developer] [Gimp-user] Discontinuation of mailing lists and moving to Discourse

Lurking is comparatively easy, though - if you are on https://discourse.gnome.org/tag/gimp and logged in (this isn't really a different requirement to being subscribed to a mailing list), you have the notifications bell icon on that site, and can select there what kind of notification mails you are receiving for this tag. I've set this to "Watching", for example - this should allow me to follow the discussions just like on an existing list. One downside is that you can't really determine from the notification mails that they are for the gimp tag, but their List-ID header tells you that they are from GNOME discourse, at least. What can be expected is a much higher volume than on the lists, though - so taking care of the notifications with mail client rules is likely a necessity. -- Regards, Michael ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list

Also we realize it's very low volume these days (barely a few threads per month, counting all mailing lists together). Myself I barely look at mailing lists every once in a while and make a random answer sometimes. And there were several mailing lists I was not even subscribed to (I did for the sake of this announcement). So that's probably why none from the core team is really trying to fight this change. There is one more thing to take into consideration: more infrastructure means more work. I said it above, I am exhausted by this all. I was only managing one of the mailing lists so far (the gimp-gui one, the most recent) and still had to regularly handle spams. I am personally thankful that this work goes to GNOME admins now. Spam did indeed heavily outweigh the on-topic messages on the other five mailing lists for quite some time - and anyone who's ever maintained a mailman-based mailing list can likely confirm that spam handling there is not as comfortable as doing this in e.g. a capable mail client. -- Regards, Michael ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list

You make it sound like introducing this tag was a wrong decision. As I introduced it as a way to group thhese issues together, did I do something wrong there? -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
