Hi guys,
As most devs have done already, I'm going to change my relationship with arch-general. This probably does not matter to most of you, so sorry for the noise. Then again, it might be a useful reminder about how most devs interact with the list (or rather, how they do not).
My approach to arch-general used to be:
1) to scan it for bug reports and feedback related to "my" corner of the Arch world, and follow up on whatever bugs/problems/questions I could. 2) to correct anything that I considered misinformation about the same.
I am no longer able to keep up with this, so I will:
1) stop dealing with bugs reported on the mailing-list, please report anything to the bug tracker. 2) just accept that the world is full of misinformation and baseless speculations and not engage with it any longer.
This is mostly for the sake of my own sanity, but also because I think my continued presence on this mailing list decreases rather than increases the current abysmal quality of discussion.
Lastly, I'd like to add that I have appreciated the many constructions conversations on the list.
Cheers,
Tom
Sorry to see you go. Although I don't post much here I do read and appreciate your prompt and very informative responses to the various issues that are on arch-general. If this is because of the recent flame-wars over systemd, couldn't you just ignore (filter out) those messages and concentrate on real, technical issues that are (occasionally) posted here?
