Hi, > That seems rational to me.

I get 5x++ more traffic from tomcat-dev than from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] together because: - the commit mails go to the same list as the dicussion stuff. - there are so many folks subscribed unable to control their mail server that nearly every day a couple of autoresponder mails come through the list. - there are so many folks subscribed unable to protect their machine from viruses so that every day some viruses come through the list.
in addition its anyway a pain with the tomcat-dev list since it drops any attachments which makes it harder for everyone to attach a patch. Reason: the stupid and totally senseless footer. Even with the footer every few days another idiot asks how to unsubscribe - I think that proofes enough that it is useless! > So I ask our tomcat-dev'ers who are interested in proxy_ajp, > proxy_balancer > and so on - are you already subscribed/following [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or do you > feel > a -strong- need for a lower-traffic list?

Since the code now moved into httpd HEAD anyway no jtc commiter can commit any more; I f.e. have only karma for the connectors, which means now I can only commit to the old dead code; so for me I see no reason to keep subscribed to tomcat-dev list; the few posts which are really about connectors I can read online, or wait a bit and then crawl though bugzilla when the problems appear there.... my 2ct. Guenter. BTW: also it was asked more than once for a separate section only for connectors in BugZilla - currently you have to do complex searches to get all the connector issues together since they are bound to Tomcat releases, but the connectors are developed independent from Tomcat.
