[Pharo-project] Not happy with the issues feed from Google
Hello, I'm not happy to see the feed subscribed to this mailing list. I often have to use the web interface to this list, and the number of one-line comments and status changes makes for a very unpleasant reading experience. In addition it makes it more difficult to find the interesting discussions. As a workflow, it also has problems, as reply mails are not added back to the issue tracker. Stephan

+1 Why not create Pharo-project-issues and initially subscribe everyone on this list but let people unsubscribe from that but continue to follow the discussions here.
As a workflow, it also has problems, as reply mails are not added back to the issue tracker.
I'm more equivocal about this statement. ../Dave
Remember that most email client support filters. You can easily create one. Cheers Mariano On Thu, Nov 18, 2010 at 1:13 PM, Dave Mason <dmason@mason-rose.ca> wrote:

+1 too Though I created filter in my web client declining such messages, I still think that for newcomers or people searching the net this is not good to see all that stuff. It's very easy to get lost in this heap of emails. What's the idea behind it? 2010/11/18 Dave Mason <dmason@mason-rose.ca>:

Stef, After some thinking about it I changed my mind. I agree now that the initial idea of sending messages from the tracker to this list was not so bad. And definitely better than having a separate mailing list for it. You say that that's the pharo developers mailing list after all, so it's intended for such processes. And I agree with this statement also. The only concern I still have is not splitting a discussion between the mailing list and the tracker. I propose that if someone wants to answer to the issue, he'd rather do it on the tracker, because this way his message will appear on both sides: the tracker and the mailing list, which is good. But the other way, if someone answers to the issue on the mailing list, it won't appear on the tracker (at least until google provides such feature) and this is not good. So you can strike me now from the list of opponents :) George
