Forgive me if I'm ignorant of any formal process for polls, but I'm
conscious that this discussion has been rumbling on for a while now. Many
good points have been made. By my reckoning, the tally is:
1. Remove the dev list entirely
==> 3 votes
2. Keep the dev list but only for traffic not relevant to users of the code
==> 7 votes
3. Keep dev list for some wider set of traffic (please specify criteria you
believe applies if selecting this option)
==> 0 votes
4. Remove dev and user. Instead use discuss at qpid.apache.org.
==> 2 votes
At what point do we come to a conclusion? Personally, I think we should
close the poll in 48 hours time.
The conclusion I would come to is that there isn't sufficient support
for a change to the current lists.
There does seem to be strong agreement that topics of interest to users
of the software would be better discussed on a list that users can be
reasonably assumed to be subscribed to.
The points of disagreement is really whether a dev list is needed or
whether it just causes confusion and
So though there are some different views on the ideal situation - mainly
around what different people feel seems most logical, most conventional,
least confusing etc - I think there is a pragmatic path to improvement:
use the user list unless you have a good reason not to. (And assume
there is no need to cross-post!)
