Folks:

We have two public mailing lists:

- [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>, ostensibly for discussion 
of the development of Apache OODT
- [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>, allegedly for end users 
to ask questions and find answers about Apache OODT

Greg Stein noted during the last Apache board meeting that since the user@ 
traffic is so low that we're needlessly segmenting our community.  OODT itself 
is software that's more for developers than end users since it requires such 
high levels of integration into existing architectures.

Following the K.I.S.S. Principle [2], I'd like to call for a community vote to 
shut down the [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> mailing list:

[ ] +1, shut down [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
[ ] ±0, don't care about [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.org's fate
[ ] -1, do NOT shut down [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>, 
because …

I'll leave the vote open at least 72 hours. And here's my +1.

Best wishes
