There is a current thread on debian-proj...@lists.debian.org that makes clear 1.) how news delivery is stretched beyond capacity, in part by under staffing, and 2.) how they are trying in a many-headed way to fix it. Nevertheless, they did get the aforementioned notices posted. Continuing the irony is another debian-project thread wrestling with the issue of getting peripheral work done when it means additional commitments to large blocks of time by already overworked volunteers. Subscribing some low-level lists seems the least I can do, short of join the effort . . . It is a matter of checking boxes on a single page. My low-level list box, which procmail separates from high interest lists, actually becomes an interesting list itself. And I am informed without placing demands on the organization that is, after all, GIVING me maybe the most powerful operating system in the world and, probably, a life-long hobby. The numerous lists allow me to shop for exactly the topics that will comprise this, like a soup recipe. Mutt even maintains the thread when a subject jumps lists, e.g. from debian-devel-announce to debian-project. -- Kind Regards, Freeman http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Thanks, I know my way around Aptitude. I was just querying about the number of updates on a system that's updated daily.

Hi John; Yes good point -- But with an efficient e-mail client like mutt it's trivial to wade through a high volume list, in my opinion. ;-D BTW this list isn't that high volume compared to some social media. Still, I think my point about USERs being impacted still stands; The announcement should go to the USERs list as well! Too much specificity gives the results seen here; most missed the announcement.

No. debian-user is for "Help and discussion among users of Debian". debian-announce is for "Important announcements". cf. http://lists.debian.org/users.html There are many different needs of different people.
