i'm sure there's a reason for this, but why is the fedora *test* list being used as an announcement list for regular release updates? i subscribed to the test list because it was the official forum for ***test*** releases. and until there's another test release, i would have thought there'd be little or no traffic on this list.
why can't there be another list -- say "updates" -- for update announcements?
Because these are testing updates, not final updates.
Anyway, we're working on solutions to cut down the noise, like an rss feed of updates announcements.
rss isn't convenient for everyone. My vote goes to a new list, initially populated with the members of this.
maybe for the future, the description for this list could include something like this text:
If you want to track and discuss testing package updates, then you might join fedora-test-updates too.
yes, that sounds about right. my objection was based on this list's own description in the "To:" line above, and i emphasize:
"For testers of Fedora Core development ***releases***"
not "packages". "releases". so, not to put too fine a point on it, unless you have something to discuss related to a fedora development ***release***, you should take that information elsewhere, and a new ML would seem to be the perfect solution.
which ML would you prefer or suggest? fedora-test-update-list ? fedora-update-test-list ? ...
here is a short list oif the fedora MLs:
