Thank you very much for doing public this interesting information.
Although I don't understand why the classical scheme in other areas will
not work in hamradio: create a public mail-list for developping of
linux hamradio applications, and have a mail-list administrator
regarding for the off-topic messages.
I am sure that "we" have lost people that could have participated in
some developements, and lost an oportunity of a good synergie, ie.
avoiding redundancies (ie. people doing the same software, at the same
time..)
So it's the freedom of the subscribers of this mail-list to keep on
beeing a closed group (less closed that before, but still closed)...
Personally I am sure that I would have learn a lot of interesting
things reading the content of this list. Don't forget the eductional
point of view.
Also, I would like to say something about what you call "signal-to-
noise ratio". In the case of the list "linux-hams", there is a lot
of "noise" if you see the point of view of the "developper", but
not so much from the point of view of the beginer, and the normal
om trying use the linux operating system for its hobby (doing
sstv, cw, dx, etc...). In a "linux-hams-dev" the only "noise" could
come from this good people, and avoiding it is easy to filter:
redirecting them to "linux-hams"...
(Amen)
