Hi,
The tracker generates a mail even for tiny status changes (e.g. 1.3 --> 1.3-Dev)... "Accepted" to "Fixed"...
We did the tracker to the main list so people realise that a lot is going on on the tracker. I guess we accomplished that mission. Yes, you managed so well, that at least I started to filter them out immediately. This a 'mission failed' in my book.
If you still want to make people aware about the issues in the tracker, then you should find a solution that only posts for a new issue are something like that.
The problem is that we use a tracker that we can not change. Google can just send all emails or none. That's it. In addition, it does not support sub-projects. So we have just a mess of 450 issues, instead of sorting them nicely. E.g. to Collections Morphic FilesSystem O2 OB and then realizing that each in itself has not that many issues... (devide and conquer *does* work!). It's always the same: Perfection is something else, but if we do not just use what we are just stuck.

Just add another indirection to fix/work around the problem ;) Best regards Stefan -- Stefan Marr Software Languages Lab Vrije Universiteit Brussel Pleinlaan 2 / B-1050 Brussels / Belgium http://soft.vub.ac.be/~smarr Phone: +32 2 629 2974 Fax: +32 2 629 3525
Mmm, I got used to the issues in the list. But new people (like Santiago, who presented himself the other day) got crazy :P. Gmail and it's multiple inboxes help me :) Maybe we can adopt an issue naming convension with tags like [Pharo-Morphic] [Pharo-Collections], so people can build more intelligent rules to organize their mail clients.
