That's it. Who's driven them away? WE HAVE. A good email-client may help you cope with the volume. Threading is a must. The fedora mailinglist has become a general forum for all things Fedora (except development and testing related items, which have their own mailinglists). It makes sense that most of the developers are on fedora-test and fedora-devel, rather than on this list. It is a normal evolution with any project to move from a single to many mailinglists. It is not a threat, it makes things more viable. Kind regards, -- dag wieers, dag@xxxxxxxxxx, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
