I admit that I haven't looked for a while, but back when I received my G1G1 laptop the mailing list documentation seemed to indicate that devel@ was the primary place for development and development related news. from watching the mailing list I've seen comments referring to several other lists, but it's not clear what lists people should be subscribed to for what prupose (and what lists are supposed tob e publicly available and what ones aren't) but a weekly summary of development sounds like a good thing to post to the development list. it's only one messge a week to delete for people who are confident that they saw everything, and it's a good summary for people who may have been busy that week. and frankly, the weekly summaries have contained development information that never touched the development list, making them doubly useful (although it may be that the list should have been copied in the first place) David Lang _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
