Hello folks picking up this comment on the Development mailing list:

I sent the following message, with questions at the end that are better answered on this list. The mailing list situation *at the moment* is summarized on http://wiki.openstack.org/MailingLists To try to answer your question, the mailing list for the developers of OpenStack to discuss development issues and roadmap is openstack-...@lists.openstack.org. It is focused on the next release of OpenStack: you should post on this list if you are a contributor to OpenStack or are very familiar with OpenStack development and want to discuss very precise topics, contribution ideas and similar. Do not ask support requests on this list. The old Launchpad list (this list) should be closed so we don't rely on Launchpad for mailing list anymore. Last time we talked about this I don't think we reached consensus on how to move things around and where to land this General mailing list. A few people suggested to use the exisiting openstack-operators mailing list as General list, therefore not creating anything new. Moving a group of over 4000 people from one list on Launchpad to another on our mailman is scary. Unfortunately we can't export the list of email addresses subscribed to Launchpad and invite them to another list (LP doesn't allow that). The first question is: * where would people go for general openstack usage questions (is 'operators' the best fit?) * Then, what do we do with Launchpad mailing list archives? If we find an agreement we can aim at closing the old LP-hosted mailing list around the summit, where we will be able to announce the new list destination to many people. Thoughts? /stef _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
