Hi Ruben, I've started a new topic to continue this discussion. Please continue to post to *both* mailing lists, since this affects all participants. I will be quite plain. Your insistence on breaking up discussion threads by changing the mailing lists the original poster selected is rude to the OP, anti-social and disruptive. The OpenCores.org community, originators of the OpenRISC open source RISC processor, has been running since 1999. Recognizing in April/May 2011 that a) we needed a developers mailing list, rather than the discussion forum based, and b) the opencores.org administrators were slow to set this up, one of the senior developers, Jonas Bonn, set up openrisc.net and the [email protected] mailing list, and all the main developers joined. The opencores.org administrators realized they had been slow, and a month or so later, set up the [email protected], so there would be a developer's mailing list on the OpenCores website. When the OpenRISC developer community met in Stockholm in July 2011, we all agreed (including Jonas, who was present) that it made sense to merge the two lists. However in the meantime, while Jonas and opencores.org sorted this out, we would all dual-post. The lists have different membership, although many of the key developers belong to both. By dual posting it would a) ensure no one was missed and b) draw new participants attention to the fact that there were two mailing lists. The merger of the two lists still has not happened. We discussed this at the OpenRISC meeting in Stockholm in September this year. Unfortunately Jonas could not attend this year, so Yann Vernier agreed to discuss with Jonas what was needed to merge the two lists. In the meantime, we all agreed to keep dual-posting, for the same reasons as before. You can see the notes and the video of the discussion on the wiki for all the details. You are the only participant on either mailing list who indulges in this behaviour. None of us can understand why you do it. Perhaps you could explain why you are so obsessively opposed to the OpenCores mailing list that you must break up other people's discussions. Then we can try to sort out the problem.
