At the risk of repeating myself for about the 50th time in the past year, I'd
encourage these packaging-related discussions to occur with the community
list specifically devoted to them, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Those in
the community with ideas can actually start working on them, since the
packaging sources are open, and have been for over a year now.
An interesting metric would be the percentage of core contributors who
(understandably IMO) don't read this list.
Eric, you're one of the few who could actually produce that result ;-)
I know I can't. What I can say is that I do read every message that
comes to install-discuss, while I only read a portion of
opensolaris-discuss, so the metric you suggest still doesn't accurately
reflect the actual chances of gaining attention of those you might wish
to engage...
Hey, if it would help get people directed in the right place I'd split
off a packaging-discuss list for the SVR4 packaging project, but I tend
to doubt it would have any real effect, since these conversations (as
was the case here) all too often are a digression from some completely
different initial topic. But I'd certainly take feedback on that idea.
