Package: lists.debian.org
Severity: normal
The current limits to messages' size on Debian lists (TTBOMK around
60kB) prevents using the lists for review of localization work.
Particularly, very large translation files can't be sent as
attachments for review as this is done for smaller work.
Coulmd it be possible to consider raising this limit for lists where
it is well known that they're well monitored and used. ATM, I'd like
to propose raising it in:
- debian-i18n: where calls for new translations are sent (so,
sometimes very big POT files)
- debian-l10n-french: highly controlled list where I can personnally
guarantee that no abuse will me made
Of course, users will still be instructed to reduce the size of their
mails as much as possible (using bzip2, etc).
I would like to propose 300kB as a new limit. That should make us able
to cope with nearly all translation files as of now ("it ought to be
enough for...": you know the drill....).
