That is true for using the CLI tools, but I think all the lists use the default Mailman setting for "private_roster" of "List members", meaning if you are a member of the list you can see the roster. It then shows you the list users in alphabetical groupings. For those with sudo access to lists.ovirt.org, you can run: /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members $LISTNAME >> I know there are many users in subscribed to relevant lists (for vdsm, >> infra, etc), but >> removing one or more from a thread can actually become an insult.

Yeah, I don't disagree with you that 10 should be reasonable, but we've got a cross-list situation where this is going to keep happening, I think. It's good we've segmented development discussions properly, but it means cross-posting happens, the recipient list grows, and I'm not going to get in a minor skirmish with everyone to get them to trim the recipient fields. :) >>> Ooh, I didn't know Mailman would do that, that's a great idea.

I haven't made tweaking that setting part of the standard settings for anything, but maybe it should be. http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Creating_and_configuring_mailing_lists > It's not possible for us to change the option for everyone without > hacking the database, but anyone who would like to have this option on > can change it themselves on the listinfo page (and if you check "Change > globally", it will be set for all lists on the server at the same time). I'd be OK with us hacking the database; IIRC it's not that big a deal, if it really helps. I reckon we should ask people. We can also change our standard so new users get the new standard.
