It was just list of words that will make lesser confusion, and in the mean time I backed up proposal by Martin Schlander,
Move function of - to: opensuse-users@ -> opensuse-help opensuse@ -> opensuse-project
I've been thinking some more about this. I don't think we should "support" the misconception that opensuse is a distro, how about:
opensuse-users@ -> suse-linux-help@opensuse.org
Users logic to select plain "opensuse" list is clear to me. If one looks for Fedora help subscribes to "fedora" not "redhat" mailing list. The problem is that we insist on naming openSUSE for community, and SUSE Linux for distribution. Fedora has not that problem.
How to solve SUSE naming is up to Novell. Official it is SUSE Linux, on FTP in opensuse directory is SL-10.0-OSS, than SL-10.1, than SL-OSS-factory, and there is unofficial shortcut openSUSE (Linux).
As someone mentioned opensuse-help will confuse experienced mail list users, so we have to give up on that. Probably opensuse-support will win the race, but most new users follow common logic that product found in opensuse directory, that links from opensuse.org, should be supported on opensuse mailing list. I don't see anything wrong to leave opensuse for the broadest range of topics, from technical to social, and create as you proposed opensuse-project for discussion about project. It is easier to move few of us than the whole world.
What about opensuse-assist or opensuse-assistance for the user questions? - -- Boyd Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com> ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://quantumlab.net/pine_privacy_guard/ iD8DBQFEhvbAVtBjDid73eYRAv27AJ0aOCK5Op7q0YJxcLJLMYDqoySWdgCfQWOT JBsI22+XT7HX2k7QZzN0Ln0= =skKI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help@opensuse.org
