Quim/Jean-Luc/Nick,
I too like the idea of announcing the releases here. I check my email
much more often than I do www pages and with inbound email autofiltering
the email volume is no problem on this list. In fact I am on one topic
specific list that has ~100 messages/day.
Best Regards,
John Holmblad

I agree with Jean-Luc. Daily e-mail from the list rarely tops 20 (which
includes notices of new releases), I don't see a problem.
I learned about MaemoClaws here and when the notice came out (just using
this as an example) I decided to give it a try. I would not have checked
the garage project news for this before then.
Perhaps the forecast for new sales is very high and you're preparing for an
onslaught of new users? :-)

Hi,
As you have seen now the http://maemo.org homepage features the news
coming from http://garage.maemo.org, that are written directly by the
project maintainers. Users can subscribe to feeds and be the first
ones to know.
Garage project maintainers, please make sure all your relevant updates
are reflected there with as much detail as possible. The GForge
interface is not the best in the world to publish news and receive
feedback but it does both. As usual, please submit feature requests if
you miss something.
Sending emails to the mailing lists for new releases can't be
considered off topic but with >200 projects in Garage (and growing)
it is clear that it's not a sustainable practice in the mid term.
Thanks for your understanding (and yes, specifically Claws mail
project tends to publish news - I just needed an example to raise
this topic). :)
Quim
Hi Quim,
I do not agree. I think that a users mailing list is a good
location, with others, to announce new versions of applications.
All 200 projects will never announce in the same time. All people
doesn't survey maemo.org to find new releases.
But as you want, and even if I think that it's an error, the new
releases will not be any more announced on this list.
