Okay, the notice period has passed, and despite this proposal
generating some discussion, there were no objections. I will therefor
proceed.
I will set up reminders to report to the community in 6 months and 12
months, as agreed.

Glad marketing@ is going to happen. We'll at least have a place to
discuss things without cluttering dev@/user@

It's already some months since its creation without much activity.

Hi Noah and Benoit,

I am sure that both of you have very much more experience in this project

Benoit has been the only one to raise an objection to this, so can we not

Let's talk about that hostility. This email thread is an example of
that hostility. And what appears to be a knee-jerk over-reaction on my
part is my learnt reaction to this hostility.
To make it clear: CouchDB is paralysed. The PMC is paralysed. And it
has been for a long time. It seems we are
+1 to all that, Noah. I can only imagine what this looks like to casual readers.
Few things require unanimity and this is not one of them.
The reason I’ve stayed quiet on the proposal is that while I don’t feel
strongly for it, I don’t feel strongly against it. It’s not my time or effort

This is it. I've already done that. We're on that thread.
No you sent a notice about its creation. Which is a way different.

Benoit, it's not that you're the bad guy for disagreeing. The
problem is when you filibuster people until they run out of energy.
This has been a problem for a long time now.
As we continue to grow CouchDB we need to get out of this mindset that
unanimity is required to proceed on any action. You

PS I don't want to be seen as filibustering here so, if people consider this to
be a waste of time, I'm +1 on creating the list if the people who want to do
the work want it. (Even though it's not my own inclination.)

Nick, I don't think you are filibustering. You raise a good point that
has not come up yet.
Namely: what do we consider to be the success criteria of mailing
lists? And perhaps more importantly: what are the failure criteria?
Here's my attempt at answering those questions.
Success criteria:

I agree.
If erlang@ becomes the place where newbie questions about Erlang go
ignored, we should can the list.

This is a notice that I am going to assume lazy consensus on the

Noah,
I wonder why I took the time to elaborate on that topic to see all my
concerns and *objections* properly ignored just because you don't care
about what does the others (which had a known and accepted success in their
strategy) or because you just disagree without giving much reason. I
I forgot to answer to one of your other concern, but I am totally agree
with the fact that contributors don't have to be a developer or whatever.
Which doesn't mean they should have a dedicated ml. Not developing and
following devs are 2 different things.

Benoit,
Sorry if I gave you that impression. I read your mail in full, and
take on board all of your points. I just don't want to drag this out
into a needlessly long discussion that tires people out.
We do a lot of *talking* in this project. It would be nice if we could
make decisions quicker
