current-testers, stable-testers
At this point both current and stable testers lists contain
too little traffic to make them worthwhile to moderate both.
I propose;
* create a single testers@ list with unsubscribe/info footers.
* accepts posts from @apache accounts only
* munge reply-to to dev@httpd where their results may be
reacted to promptly. Even if they aren't dev@ subscribers,
frequent reporters would be modded 'allow-from' and future
moderation wouldn't be required.
* initially merge/sort both stable and current testers subscript
lists, pre-announce the change and announce it again after.
* in the announce, remind folks this list is for pre-release
candidate testing, and those that wish to stay abreast of only
official releases should seek announce@httpd. Post a second
reminder to announce@httpd altering folks to testers@httpd
(and that there is nothing to do if they already were subscribed
to current or stable testers).
Thoughts?
Bill

Ping.
We either fix this, or I'm resigning from moderating these lists
come Wednesday (in which case we need some new current-testers and
stable-testers moderators to step up.) Comment please or forever
hold your peace :)
