Please also look it from the other side : do the dri users want to get the dri devel mails ? That could just be a bit to much mail pouring into their mailboxes that doesn't help them anyway. If you want my opinion, I vote for users & devel and damn close that bugtracking system. Look at what the KDE people use for bug tracking, now that's what i call neat (together with the nice KCrash backtracer). http://bugs.kde.org/ Peter > > Shut it down, let them post on dri-devel. > > Keith > > > _______________________________________________________________ > > Sponsored by: > ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ > _______________________________________________ > Dri-devel mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel _______________________________________________________________ Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
