Answering the "does anyone actually use it" bit... |
22 |
|
23 |
I'm subscribed (via gmane) and scan new message subjects, at least, |
24 |
reading messages when they (might) pertain. |
25 |
|
26 |
Tho the GLSAs are of questionable usefulness here, since I'm on ~arch and |
27 |
update regularly enough that announced affected versions are usually |
28 |
ancient history on my boxen. I think I've actually seen one or two that |
29 |
applied to me... in over a decade on gentoo. |
30 |
|
31 |
But I still subscribe and at least scan titles, as for me it's part of |
32 |
being a good admin, just in case, both for the GLSAs, and in case there's |
33 |
anything else of importance posted. |
34 |
|
35 |
Of course if the announce list was actually used for announcements other |
36 |
than GLSAs, it'd definitely enhance its general usefulness. So please do |
37 |
start announcing stuff there -- IMO, anything fit for the front page is |
38 |
fit for the general announce list as well! =:^) |
