One of the things we've seen with our various communities is that the more mailing lists that they have the harder and more confusing it is for someone new to know where to send their questions and thus they end up cross-spamming to far more lists than they really need which ends up seeing the other lists getting a lot of chatter that they really don't need. Instead of splitting the list, I would suggest that using the topic feature of mailman until we have a truly relevant need to split out a particular topic to its own list. To help this along I've added a few topics to the list. I'll see about adding information to the ONAP wiki, but in the mean time here [0] is some documentation from the OpenDaylight wiki on topics. Topics just now added to the list are: [admin] [devel] [infrastructure] or [infra] [install] [user] or [users] At a very minimum if folks start using topics, even if they aren't specifically defined then it becomes easier for people to write mail filters to handle bringing mail that is more relevant to them into a more visible or manageable location. -Andy- [0] https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Communication -- Andrew J Grimberg Lead, IT Release Engineering The Linux Foundation _______________________________________________ onap-discuss mailing list onap-discuss at lists.onap.org https://lists.onap.org/mailman/listinfo/onap-discuss ============================================================================================================================ Disclaimer: This message and the information contained herein is proprietary and confidential and subject to the Tech Mahindra policy statement, you may review the policy at http://www.techmahindra.com/Disclaimer.html <http://www.techmahindra.com/Disclaimer.html> externally http://tim.techmahindra.com/tim/disclaimer.html <http://tim.techmahindra.com/tim/disclaimer.html> internally within TechMahindra. ============================================================================================================================
