Hi Bogdan, i think there exists some kind of standard for such a list that is expected from users and followed from many other projects: - list name "announce" - low volume, a few posts a month, only really important content - must be moderated to prevent spam and abuse So, going into more detail, i suggest that we use this list to: - announce minor releases - announce critical fixes for branches (e.g. crashes for important modules) - announce important other events (e.g. a major change in project focus, fundrasing efforts) - the post will be written from the person who has done the fix - the author can post the message first to the devel list, if he wants review or another opinions - if some (non author) developer think that a certain thing should be announced, he needs to start a discussion about this on the devel list Cheers, Henning _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openser.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
