Aye, in my experience mailing lists are better because having to write down thoughts in a slightly more structured way (in a mail message to be read from start to end in one go) results in people organizing their thoughts better (as opposed to a more or less random exchange of loosely organized chat messages). Not to mention that using a mailing list *also* records discussions and the decisions, thanks to the messages being archived, which is more “durable” for future reference. Oh, and everybody can easily grab a copy of the mailing list archives (from the Mailman web interface as mboxes, or keeping their local copy) so it's less likely that all copies of mailing list archives would suddenly disappear; but OTOH, as unlikely as it may seem, Slack could go bankrupt and/or the chat history vanish from one day to another. > On Fri, Jul 17, 2020 at 6:37 AM Adrian Perez de Castro <ape...@igalia.com> > wrote: > > > Also, some packagers used to carry assorted downstream patches for build > > issues related to unification build which have not been needed anymore. > > > > Unified source builds can have performance merit. > The SQLite Amalgamation makes it 5% and 10% faster. > https://www.sqlite.org/amalgamation.html Well, this is what Link-Time Optimization is for, without needing to resort to ugly preprocessor tricks. I would rather let the compiler and linker do their job—it's 2020 and any serious toolchain supports it by now ;-) Cheers, —Adrián
