While I am amused that your first words after "hopefully will attract fewer trolls" themselves include a mean-spirited troll, I'm sorry you think a collaborative security mailing list with shared, collaborative ownership is "redundant". We clearly have very different views of the world. I continue to think such a list holds great opportunity for collaboration since it was working in that role for many months, but it's hard to see how it can now be the securityteam@ list, unfortunately (unless your'e speaking alone, of course). > I suggested cooperating on translations via > a shard Pootle instance. Hard to see how that would work since it would require the source to be highly similar and that looks unlikely to be the case. > Or maybe code browsing/searching facilities > with OpenGrok. Or either of those possible? Hard to see how two very different source trees can have a shared browser. It would be best for Apache to run its own instance. > Or maybe work on a collaborative Q&A site as an alternative user > support option? Plausible in the future but a little early to be proposing it - YAGNI applies. > Or maybe a shared template and extensions site? I believe I once proposed such a thing, and was told by both communities that licensing issues would largely prevent it. Delighted to hear you are now such a fan of co-operation though, Rob. I'll be sure to support any viable proposals you present to both communities. S.
