[Moose-dev] Re: Issue notifications in the mailing lists

Alexandre and Doru, I see your point, and I see many other open source projects mixing issue notifications with the real development mails, thus corroborating it. However, I would say that the best setup would be using two different mailing lists, because many of the issue notifications are not informative at all (e.g., "Issue #x fixed.") and you get a wrong idea of how much "real" discussion is going on the list. Other projects, such as ArgoUML adopt the multi lists approach. For example Argo has these lists: org.tigris.argouml.announce org.tigris.argouml.commits org.tigris.argouml.dev org.tigris.argouml.issues org.tigris.argouml.modules-dev org.tigris.argouml.users I've seen development mailing lists without discussions but with 2000 emails per month generated only by the issue tracking system. If this will be the case with moose-dev, (and many of the emails are really generated by the issue tracker) I would try to consider something different from mailing lists to coordinate. In any case, this is my opinion, and it's up to you to decide. Of course, I can always filter emails out ;) Thanks for reading.
