you wrote it privately as this email maybe? you should keep the discussion on the list so your ideas may be useful for documentation editors > I didn't act as suggested on the page (by sending a post to > [email protected] because [a] that appears to be the address of a > list of which I'm not a member, and [b] I simply don't have time to > search for HOW to join and go through usual "are you really a person, > or are you an alien from outer space who wants to spam us to death" > rituals, and [c] I cannot be a regular documentation contributor and > thus don't need to have MORE irrelevant email coming to my address > than I already get. > I agree with you. I think that we may add a 4th point in the list in CG 5.2 saying something like: 5. You must be subscribed in order to post via email to the `lilypond-dev mailing list <http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel>`. Otherwise you can post a message without subscribing by using the Gmane interface at http://post.gmane.org/post.php?group=gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.devel Please rephrase it in a better english (even though I mostly copied and pasted from the link above). > I think a better idea would be simply to have a single person or email > address (which could be checked periodically by any number of people) > to which documentation suggestions could be sent.

It would be a waste of resources. The contributor who is not subscribed to lilypond-dev can follow the discussion on gmane.org.

Thanks for the feedback. Cheers, Federico _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
