| = Communication |
| |
| == Communication |
| |
| The Project obtains its strength from the communication of its members. |
| In order for members to easily communicate with each other, the Project |
| has a variety of mailing lists. These lists, with the exception of the |
| announcement lists, are not moderated and anybody is more than welcome |
| to join them. However, you must be subscribed to post to a list. |
| |
| To reduce the bandwidth demands on everyone, mail should not contain |
| attachments. It is recommended that you place interesting material (such |
| as patches) either within the body of the message or provide a URL for |
| retrieval. |
| |
| To join the mailing lists, see our xref:mail.adoc[Mailing List] page. |
| |
| The Project's list fall into the categories below. |
| |
| |
| === Announcement Lists |
| |
| Announcement lists are very low traffic designed to communicate |
| important information, such as final releases of a subproject's code, to |
| a wide audience. |
| |
| |
| === User Lists |
| |
| User lists are for users of a product to converse about such things as |
| configuration and operating of the products of the Project. |
| |
| |
| === Developer Lists |
| |
| Developer lists are for the developers of the project. On these lists |
| suggestions and comments for code changes are discussed and action items |
| are raised and voted on. For the developer community, these lists are |
| the very center of the project where all the "action" is. |
| |
| |
| === Commit Lists |
| |
| The commit lists are where all cvs code commit messages are sent. All |
| committers are required to subscribe to this list so that they can stay |
| aware of changes to the repository. |
