  What about getting rid of -project?

WHAT? Why??
  Because it is useless in my eyes.  All discussion could also take
place here and most people mix it up anyway.  The distinction is too
blurry.

The "tone in gentoo" etc threads recently belonged to gentoo-project.
Those threads are usually the ones that grow the longest. If people want
those on gentoo-dev then gentoo-project is not needed. Granted most of
the time the list is not that active but so are many other mailing lists
we have. I don't think this is something we should have on the council
agenda without the issues having had it's own thread (on gentoo-project
according to current rules).

It always seemed to me that people want to send threads to -project for them to just go away. Once a thread goes to -project, it just whithers on the vine and nothing much happens. There may be a need for -project but if almost no one is going to be there, there is no point sending threads to it. Maybe developers should be required to subscribe to -project so that even if a thread is sent there, they still get to see the postings and deal with the issues that are being raised.
