Hello,
I would like to propose a change in the way we use our mailing lists.
== Current status ==
For now, we, Debian Science, have two mailing lists:
* debian-science at lists.debian.org
* debian-science-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
The first one is used for both scientific/it questions but also
packaging related discussions.
While the second is mainly used for the bug reports and commits.
I have the feeling that the main mailing list
(debian-science at lists.debian.org) is more and more used for packaging
purposes. And, most of the time, users do not care about packaging
discussions. I am afraid that science-focused users might get bored by
our packaging discussions.
== Proposal ==
I would like to propose the following:
* move all packaging related discussions to
debian-science-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
* use debian-science at lists.debian.org only for user oriented discussions
* make sure that all the commit mails are sent on
debian-science-maintainers-commits at lists.alioth.debian.org
Any comments / opinions ?
Sylvestre
