Hi, I want to propose the creation of a mailing list focusing on marketing, events and misc community activities not directly related with software development:
- qt-project.org content. - Marketing activities. - Organization and involvement in events. ... The problem is that many of the people actually working on these activities (at Nokia, other companies, individuals...) are not really engaged in software development and I don't see them subscribing here only to cherry-pick the non-technical discussions. What it happens in practice is that someone like me must go after them to their mailboxes, blogs, tweets, etc - without a clear record of whatever discussions we might have. I subscribe totally to the principle of less lists with high traffic and the education on e.g. mail filters. I think it works well to prevent the fragmentation of discussions inside a meta-area (e.g. software development) but I don't think it is the solution for everything especially when you are mixing busy people with very different backgrounds. The existence of "marketing" or "community" specific mailing lists in big free software projects is quite usual. Probably for a good reason. Please consider. Thank you. -- Quim _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
