Bug#795294: Remove debian-kernel-maint list

2015-08-12 Thread Ben Hutchings
Package: lists.debian.org
Severity: normal

The debian-kernel-maint list has received nothing but spam and
unanswered user questions since February 2007, shortly after its
creation.  In fact I wasn't aware of its existence until just
now when I scrolled down the list of lists fror developers.

Please remove it now.

Ben.

 That seems inherently conflicting because external people are
 most likely to start discussions on the maintainer address.

And wouldn't every user have to subscribe to the other list?

We've had debian-kernel-maint for a while now, but its never really
been used. Should we keep it around?

From what I understand, the reason for this list was to separate
kernel discussions from the bug noise. Since debian-kernel is still
listed as the maintainer, it seems to me that it makes more sense to
move debbugs stuff away debian-kernel rather than move discussions to
a new list (since many of them will begin w/ a message to the
maintainer address).

How about we ask the bugs.debian.org folks to redirect bug mail to
debian-kernel-maint, and continue to use debian-kernel for
discussions?
