Hi, Every now and then, on IRC (well, at least on #opensuse-gnome), there's a question like "what's the deadline to get packages in this beta" or "are we feature frozen" or "should we submit to openSUSE:11.1 instead of openSUSE:Factory". I'm nearly sure answers to all those questions are obvious to some people and/or are documented somewhere on the wiki. But the fact is that it's not obvious to a bunch of people. I'd like to see mails sent for all of this stuff, possibly to a new mailing list (opensuse-devel-announce, which would be for announcements for people following the development of openSUSE). Eg, sending a reminder that the deadline for submitting packages for the next beta is at the end of the week, or explaining that 11.1 was branched and updates for 11.1 should be handled this way or this other way. Or announcing that we're freezing upstream versions. Stuff like that. (fwiw, this proposal is based on what is done upstream by GNOME, and it has helped improve our life in the GNOME community) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
