Yeah, I don't personally see much use for package-announce anymore. It was started back in the day before rss feeds and other tools. scm-commits I think is still valuable as it's a record of all commits, so anyone interested can see and it's distributed so after the commits there's no way to rewite the emails. :) That said, subscribing to it by a human isn't too great now... the volume is just too much to even skim. Back in the old days I used to read they all the commits (and caught some fun bugs too), but its just not possible anymore. > So, I am no thinking of keeping the list of important mailing lists really > short, but the modify the "Find software you wish to package/maintain for > Fedora" a bit.
