Yeah, can improve this myself, too, in general. :) Though for GCDs, my specific ask is to not just refer to them by number alone! (at least in the Subject) :) > Also: maybe we should try a bit harder to use info-guix *just* for > information, not for reply-all "I support" threads, just so our inboxes > get less flooded with stuff? If I had noticed the info-guix in my reply, I would have left that out! apologies! I do think it is useful to have the various phases of GCDs announceed on info-guix, though, as infrequent but potentially important stuff folks should be aware is in process... just somehow make sure the reply-to address is set appropriately (and double-checking my own habit of reply-all!)... live well, vagrant
