I don't believe there's any problem with that. vger already hosts quite a few lists that are userspace only (eg git) or span user and kernel (eg alsa and kvm). And in any case the total traffic (# of subscribers, # of messages) that the current general@ list generates is pretty minimal compared to what vger already handles, so I think there's no problem with having a [email protected] carry everything that [email protected] does today. - R. ___ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general

I do not think it would be good if we had to have one list on vger for kernel work and another one for all the user-space work. Other than that, I do not really care where the general develop list is hosted. my 2 cents, woody ___ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
