I think there are two options: Option A1: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ... "openstack-general" makes it clear this is about general questions and things that address the whole community. This would be a straight replacement of the current openstack@launchpad mailing-list. Option A2: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ... Same, using "openstack" instead of "openstack-general". Makes it clear it's the "default" list. Option B: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ... "User" would be a merge of the current list with the operators list. The benefit is that it matches a recognized pattern in open source project lists (-user, -dev, -announce). The drawback is that there is no default list for newcomers or general discussion, and operators-specific topics will get lost on the -user list, the same way the dev topics used to be. Personally, I prefer option A. On one side you have a general list where almost everyone lurks, on the other you have several topic- or team-oriented lists with sharper focus. One issue is that it's difficult to spot important things on the (noisy) general list, but we also have a (moderated) -announce list that we can more actively use for things we want to make sure everyone sees. Any other option ? Which one do you prefer ? -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) Release Manager, OpenStack _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
