my usual complaint: it will be great to see all announces duplicated in main haskell list
I always only announce things on haskell-cafe. What list is the "main haskell list"?
This is the description of the Haskell mailing list: "haskell@haskell.org (read & search via gmane) Announcements, discussion openers, technical questions. haskell@haskell.org is intended to be a low-bandwidth list, to which it is safe to subscribe without risking being buried in email. If a thread becomes longer than a handful of messages, please transfer to haskell-cafe@haskell.org."
All announcements should go to haskell@haskell.org if nowhere else. In practice, it is probably best to post to both haskell and haskell-cafe and this is what most people do.
Hmm, interesting, I've never bothered subscribing to that list. I assumed it was a moderated announcement list that I wouldn't be able to post to myself, i.e. it would be a one-way list only. My assumption was most likely based on my experience with Debian announcement lists. I have a hard time seeing a point in having that list: - there should be no discussions on the list, and - people suggest that announcements be X-posted to haskell-cafe. Hmm, so what is posted to haskell@haskell.org that a subscriber to haskell-cafe would be inerested in? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus@therning.org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
