I assume some people would still be subscribed to it but just scroll over subjects from time to time with little interest, which might be frustrating to worthfull new contributors. Additionally I guess it would split discussions, so a "core" person proposes something to internals-readonly, then discussions happen on both lists with some cross-postings and some mails of a thread missing in one list - sounds annoying. johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
