Throughput on vger.kernel.org does seem incredible.  But lately
SourceForge doesn't seem very bad at all, as it seems they have beefed
up their servers.

I'm only proposing SourceForge as I can set up a list easily there
easily, and I don't know the right people to ask to get it done on
vger.kernel.org :)

Unless anyone objects in the next 10 hours, I'll try to create it, and
let everyone know about it.

thanks,

greg k-h

I agree.  I can set up a "linux-hotplug" group using SourceForge if
others also think that this is a needed thing.  I don't want to see
things like this happen again.

Actually almost anyone can, but at least I'm volunteering :)

Given that I (and many people on linux-scsi, it seems) are looking to
"hotplugging" as one of the major enhancements for 2.5.x development, this
is probably a good idea.  Can vger.kernel.org host this list?  Who do we
conatct about this?

Miles had a suggestion for a "linux-hotplug" mailing list; this
could have been a good issue to coordinate on such a smaller
(lower traffic?) list.

In this case, the ball just got dropped when it looked like this
patch wasn't even going to Linus.  After the Linux 2.4.0 change
notes, that ball just got picked up again!

 It's pretty much the same patch (functionally) as I posted to the
 linux-usb-devel mailing list, which I presumed would inform the hotplugging
 people.  Mea culpa, I seem to have been in error there.

 Hi Greg,
 
 David Brownell had mentioned previously that he thought the
 throughput on vger.kernel.org might be better than
 lists.sourceforge.net because vger is better matched to
 its server load.  Do you know whether this is true?
 My preference would be to see this list be hosted by a
 relatively quick mailserver.
 
 If the concensus is that sourceforge is good enough,
 than you have my gratitude for getting this set up.

Throughput on vger.kernel.org does seem incredible.  But lately
SourceForge doesn't seem very bad at all, as it seems they have beefed
up their servers.

I'm only proposing SourceForge as I can set up a list easily there
easily, and I don't know the right people to ask to get it done on
vger.kernel.org :)

Unless anyone objects in the next 10 hours, I'll try to create it, and
