I think it's best to have separate mailing lists for different architectures. I think traffic wise it also safes bandwidth. Only people that are interested in a specific mailing list will get this mail and not traffic they don't want. The ppc mailing list will be very interesting again when the AmigaOne X1000 and Netbook will be released. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AmigaOne_X1000 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=781936 If this ends up in an active mailing list where also ARM resides it's difficult to filter, I'm subscribed to both. > Andreas > > -- > SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany > GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer; HRB 16746 AG Nürnberg > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org > To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org > Regards, Joop. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+owner(a)opensuse.org

The ppc, amd64 and ia64 lists didn't have any traffic in 2010 and 2011. I would like to have some point for people to go for non x86 architecture specific stuff.

Hey, we are currently trying to reduce the amount of communication channels we provide. Because of this I would like to merge the 4 architecture lists into one list called opensuse-arch. If nobody objects until the 15th of November 12:00 UTC I will merge the lists. You don't have to do anything except rewriting your filter if you use one. Thanks in advance for your consideration.
