IMHO [email protected] is perfect. It matches exactly the other mailing lists naming scheme, like linux-scsi ... SocketCAN is a project name which has been created by Jan Kiska to distinguish this CAN implementation from other (chardev) CAN concepts. Since it is inside mainline kernel and the 'the' Linux CAN subsystem, i was thinking about getting rid of this project name. This is now a good chance to name it like other subsystems on vger.kernel.org Best regards, Oliver _______________________________________________ Socketcan-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/socketcan-users
