I've often been confused that discussion seem to seamlessly be on either -patches, or -hackers. From the understanding I got on the mailing list pages (http://archives.postgresql.org/), it seems like -patches is supposed to be only for patches, and -hackers for the general discussion, issues, features, etc on anything development related. But from observation, it seems like -patches and -hackers are different lists of the same thing, except that -patches has a much bigger message size limit. Is that the intended operational status? If not, would it be possible to some how force reply-to of pg-patches to -hackers? I know, that blows chunks with the usual mailling-list reply-to issues, but it would make -hackers the single place to follow discussions, and maybe make -patches a more pointed "list of things to track". Tracking 2 lists really isn't a big deal - I'm guessing most others dump both -patches and -hackers into the same mailbox anyways too, but it does seem like the 2 lists are a needless split as they currently are used. a. -- Aidan Van Dyk Create like a god, [EMAIL PROTECTED] command like a king, http://www.highrise.ca/ work like a slave.
