[eclipse.org-committers] What is appropriate use of this list
|
Ok... so lets instead have a discussion about what is appropriate for
this list. It's a public list. It's for committers. Spamming implies
abuse of a resource, which I think is an unfair classification for at
least half of this discussion, personally. Use of the repositories and
version control systems to me seems quite appropriate given the
relevance to all committers. Getting help installing SVN itself has
been agreed to not be the correct place for this discussion, to which I
also agree. We initially had this list closed to anything but
announcements from anyone but the Foundation however many people asked
for us to open it and we have done so (many months ago now). Doug S and
others recently expressed interest in sharing this kind of information
on the list. You clearly do not agree. We're a community, so a public
consensus is probably the best way to handle it.

There are plenty of other interweb means of having this discussion (
message boards, newsgroups, etc ).
