I second that.

I understand your point, but I think Java SIG doesn't really have the
right to change the behaviour of a list in this way, this was discussed
only by two persons if I read the log correctly, but this decision has
impact on every one who uses this list, and, I don't have time to follow
SIG meetings or take care of anything else, it's quite bad, and I really
would like to dedicate more time, but this is the way it is, and now
this list has become just useless.

Making a new mailing list is cheap, or *if you really have to use this
one*, just make a nice weekly summary, with a clear subject of what's
going on, and don't flood us. This is even in the most minimal
netiquette requirement, if not common sense.

Thanks,
Mario
