Mailing list for people involved in Linux distributions
Distro people! We're starting a mailing list for coordinating on cross-distro problems, "fire of the week", anything which needs - or would benefit from - distributions speaking to each other. Example topics include: * "new $X is totally broken oh god" * coordination of stuff like time_t migration * discussing how to handle something new (the github unstable-tarballs incident would be a good example) Please consider subscribing: distributi...@lists.linux.dev (link on lists.linux.dev / https://subspace.kernel.org/lists.linux.dev.html) Do join too if you're an upstream and interested in these topics, especially if you're writing core software. We want a diverse set of opinions and perspectives! Pass it on to other distribution folks / packagers too. Cheers!

This is a great idea, and something that we would want to boost from Promo to the outside world. It would also probably make for a decent pilot discussion forum on the Discourse instance we are testing: https://discuss.kde.org/t/would-this-be-a-good-place-for-the-linux-distro-mailing-list/142/1 I would help us gauge whether the platform is popular and usable by external actors, i.e., the folks in charge of distros with KDE implementations.
