Hi,
At the moment if a layer doesn’t have enough volume to justify a dedicated mailing list for
patches (see, for example, [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>) then the convention is that the patches can
be sent to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.
However, that’s also the list that we encourage users of Yocto to use for help,
so the list has a mix of patches for various layers and people asking for help,
which isn’t ideal: users who want help don’t want to be flooded with patches
for layers they’re not using, layer maintainers may not want to see the
requests for help, and people who want the status reports have to receive
patches and support.
The Yocto TSC has been discussing this, and as a solution to this we’ve just created
a new mailing list: [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>. This list is specifically for
Yocto-related projects which don’t have their own mailing list or other patch
submission process. We ask that all layers currently using yocto@ for patches move
to yocto-patches@, so that yocto@ can be used purely for discussion and other
non-patch related subjects.
I think this is a great change, along with the new yocto-status@ list it will
make things easier to follow :)
Do you know if yocto-patches@ will be available via lore.kernel.org?
I've just asked them to index the new lists as well as these important
ones which are missing too:
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-announce
http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-architecture
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/automated-testing
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-security
Cheers
Michael.
