may be the solution should be:
* a list for the very last official release (not betas), prone to have many more problems/questions than the others
Unfortunately, this will split up parts of the existing lists @suse.com to the new one.
* an other list for all the other distribution version.
You think about suse-linux-10.0@opensuse.org etc.? (This would be consistent because people wouldn't need to change their subscription when a new version is released.)
Or something like suse-linux-dinosaur@opensuse.org? ;-)
IMHO many problems are not version-specific, so the same question will appear in several lists and create unnecessary traffic (and duplicate work for those who answer it).
Additionally: should all these lists be in english? IMHO: No - many people don't understand english good enough or just want to write in their native language. For me, english is OK for development, bugzilla etc. - but not for the users list, please. [2]
So you are advocating that there -not- be a users list in english. What about all of english only users using the list? Are they just SOL? Which list has more traffic for suse-linux the german or english list? -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
