11 Well, why don't we create something like virtualization@g.o? That
12 would be a mailing list to discuss virtualization related topics.

14 Bugzilla is still the official (and in this case,

17 I don't think so. I've been attaching patches to BZ in the past and the
18 response time was very poor. I know everybody is working on gentoo in
19 their spare time and I appreciate it, but why not use something that
20 works for both sides? I think that if we want to attract more volunteers
21 we have to have a process that goes the least into their way.

28 That is the case on every mailing list. Every -dev list has number of
29 subscribes far bigger than number of people with commit access.

31 But I respect your decision guys. I am going to stop posting patches
32 until there's an agreement on how to do that.
