Hi. Would it be any beneficial to (either, both or neither): 1. Combine mailing lists as follows: - mesa3d-dev & dri-devel - mesa3d-users & dri-users - mesa3d-announce & dri-announce - mesa-commit & dri-patches There is probably historical reasons for the separation, but are there any current ones that would be more important than the benefits for single point of discussion about Mesa/DRI which overlap so much anyway (especially in users' perspective, but also development-wise)? At the same time, they might be moved to freedesktop.org from sourceforge.net? 2. Make DRI's wiki into combined Mesa3D's and DRI's wiki. Mesa3D does not currently have a wiki of its own, but DRI has. Mesa3D certainly doesn't need yet another wiki in addition to X.org wiki and DRI wiki, so why not make it a common one officially? I think Mesa3D's current web site is quite nicely organized, and could be evolved from that by integrating a bit more DRI stuff and the new (currently DRI) wiki into it. Certainly not throwing away it and replacing with a wiki, a wiki would take a very big effort to make it as navigable and organized as the Mesa3D homepage currently is. If either sounds reasonable, is it acceptable for DRI as a project to be generally known (as it already mostly is known, I think) a sub-project of Mesa3D, so the combined name would be simply Mesa3D? Or is there a need for clearer separation between the two? Mainly important from the perspective of naming of the mailing lists, ie. can they be mesa3d-devel or something else. -Timo ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
