Mailing lists
I was wondering if we have enough traffic on this list to warrant a split to
multiple lists.
I've heard folks complain about traffic, and there are times it really
flurries. I worry that 'user' requests don't get the wide audience they
deserve due to overload w/ RTs & development ideas.
I can think of three use cases (1) developing Gump [RTs and more] (2)
working with the Gump service [hey, I got nagged, what is this?] (3)
Personal Gumps.
I know there are pros and cons to having multiple lists, but I think we've
reached a point where one list if overload. Perhaps the latter two are best
served by one, for now. I don't know if it is worth renaming general@ to be
dev@, I suspect not.
As such, I think we ought add users@gump.apache.org. Thoughts?
BTW: Do we know how many addresses are subscribed to general, how many are
moderated in, and so forth? Just curious.
regards,
Adam

the fun thing with a users list is that you will often actually get more
questions because its less scary to post to a users list or something
like that. The bad thing is that there can exist a growing disconnect
between users and developers.
I very much like the equation user =~ developer. Especially for projects
not very much geared toward "dumb end users" but towards other developers.
+/-0 from me. If you do ask for a new list ask for a split out cvs list
at the same time as well (which was +1ed a while back but I couldn't
bring myself to put more burden on poor ol' Berin).
cheers!

Doesn't feel that way to me.

Any moderator can find out by sending the appropriate mail

allowed to post.

Adam,
I think this is a great idea!
I know it would be very useful to me, if the operational, day-to-day stuff
were
in a separate list from the discussion. As an interested party to
continuous
integration ideas and implementations, in general, I joined this group.
But
I find myself having to ignore a lot fo the operational mail about this
checkin
or some other automated nag. I don't run/use Gump myself, but am only
interested in the technology.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
wade
