Putting some (approximate) numbers on the traffic to make things
clearer. The number of mails so far during 2006 for the proposed lists:
563 commons-user
1396 commons-dev (excluding the new lists below)
132 commons-wiki (I think this can be included in commons-dev)
861 commons-issues
710 commons-commits
370 commons-ci (this is GUMP)
To put this into context, here are the numbers for the current list
setup:
563 commons-user
3469 commons-dev
Many people already complain about the amount of traffic.
You know what happens if we split the list like that?
Many people will do is to unsubscribe to
commons-wiki
commons-issues
commons-commits
commons-ci
Yes, that's the idea. For people to be subscribed *only* to the things
that interest them. If someone is interested they will help. But I
believe that the noise kills productivity for many people.
...which means less oversight about the project.
Not sure if that would be a good move.
Isn't oversight a committer or pmc duty?
At least we should make it compulsory for committers
to be subscribed to all these lists.
Yes, of course, I didn't write that as I thought it was a given.
My 2 cents
cheers
