Did my fellow git-related maintainers not reply because they were waiting to hpa to reply, and hpa not reply since he didn't see any interest by the maintainers? Or something else happenned to this idea? Would any other people find this useful? -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ VI has two modes: the one in which it beeps and the one in which it doesn't. ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2005-09-21 20:14 Subject: Re: [REQ] git-announce mailing list Message-ID: <7vr7bitbzn.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/7vr7bitbzn.fsf%40assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net In-Reply-To: <20050921143231.GA21971@pasky.or.cz> ``` Petr Baudis writes: > Did my fellow git-related maintainers not reply because they were > waiting to hpa to reply, and hpa not reply since he didn't see any > interest by the maintainers? I did not because I felt anything other than the following three would be just adding noise to already high traffic: (1) "I am the vger.kernel.org list maintainer and I will create one". (2) "I do not have enough time to keep up with git list but I want to get only announce -- count me in please". (3) "It is not a good idea because...". and whatever I would have said would not have been any of the above. ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2005-09-21 21:40 Subject: Re: [REQ] git-announce mailing list Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/Pine.LNX.4.63.0509212336460.28874%40wgmdd8.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de In-Reply-To: <7vr7bitbzn.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> ``` Hi, On Wed, 21 Sep 2005, Junio C Hamano wrote: > (3) "It is not a good idea because...". ... because at the current stage, changes happen very quickly, and very often. Most of the times, you really can only understand what the change is about if you 1) happen to know how git was supposed to work before the change, and 2) happen to understand what is being discussed anyway. I'll feel differently after 1.0 is released, mostly since I know that Junio will release it only after git grew up to be stable enough to evolve at a much slower pace. I expect mostly merge enhancements and porcelain improvements after that. Ciao, Dscho ```
