Personally I think it is fine to have C++ discussions on this list, simply because we all know this list has evolved in scope. It is a bit misleading still having the group called python inside Maya, but we also tend to talk a lot about general Qt regardless of it being in Maya. Or we talk about g

My comment was in regards to Fredrik’s comment. But then you kind of need to write that prefix instruction in the footer or something… At least I know I’m going to forget about that in case I ever have a C++ related question, at least ;) ​ On 8 October 2014 16:57, Marcus Ottosson wrote: > Cave

Caveat emptor. If the questioner is interested in views from the C++ community, then putting a [C++] prefix in the *subject line* is one way of getting their attention. On 8 October 2014 16:45, Fredrik Averpil wrote: > But then you kind of need to write that prefix instruction in the footer > o

This is why I would lean towards making the c++ one separate and just have it as a sister group to this one. On 8 October 2014 16:45, Fredrik Averpil wrote: > But then you kind of need to write that prefix instruction in the footer > or something... At least I know I'm going to forget about that

The name of this group will throw a lot of people and even if they do ask C++ questions here, they are often prefixed with "I know it's a python thread, but..". And as far as I know it isn't possible to rename Google Groups. And for me it is quite useful to be able to filter to just see one or
