Another way to let it be less bugging would be a splitting of this mailing list
into multiple ones. No, not project specific - I know you love the
cross-pollination :) But splitting it into
commons-cvs|svn|[EMAIL PROTECTED] (many projects have their own list for
commit mails), commons-jira|issues|[EMAIL PROTECTED] (don't know a project
having this, but would love to see this, especially because of the topic we are
actually talking about) and the actual dev list for discussions. This would
finally make it possible to read current heavy traffic lists like geronimo-dev
and this one on mailing list archives. At the moment I often get lost in the
huge amount of mails and I refrain from subscribing to both metioned lists.

WDYT? Any chance for implementation?

We talked about this a while back, and though there was some
disagreement the consensus was definitely in favour of splitting the
'noise' off onto another list. Making the archives more readable was
the big reason. It's just not been done.

I think it's more common to move things over to the commits list than
making a list for each source. Maven currently does this.

I can definitely do it for JIRA no problem, so then it's just a matter
of getting a wiki change. I'll let this sit for a few days to make
sure no-one -1s, and then go ahead and make it happen.
