Re: [last call] setting up Subversion mailing lists (was: Two other issues to discuss for Subversion)

[Craig L Russell <Cr...@Sun.COM>]

No objection from me for creating mailing lists and svn repo in the  
expected final place.

<aside>
It's a bit of a pain for podlings to face a double move of both their  
repositories and mailing lists when arriving at Apache. The rationale  
for doing it has many aspects that IMHO don't apply to the Subversion  
project.

That said, I expect very few projects to ask for this special treatment.
