The complaint about 'opensuse@''s efficacy is perhaps a misconceived trumped-up complaint because some people have misinterpreted what the list is supposed to be about and have given a purpose to the list which is only the creation of their own minds.
I agree.
Look at how this list is/has been described in the list of Mail Lists available to be subscribed by users:
<quote>
opensuse English Generic questions and User to User support for all the openSUSE distributions
</quote>
Note the "User to User support" in particular and the "Generic questions" in general.
No mention of Developer participation.
Right. It may be a consideration, though, on the factory mail list, which is today described thus (the old "Welcome to opensuse-factory" message I keep from 2008 doesn't say anything about purpose of that list): Discussions about the development of the openSUSE distributions. (Bug reports => Bugzilla, Support => User/Support lists!) So well, lets have "opensuse-support" to post those questions that before were asked on "opensuse-factory". Will developers be there to answer our questions, or just plain users and a few volunteers? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
