Guido/Barry can decide on the final structure, but I'd recommend something a bit different: 1) drop the python- prefix. These are @python.org 2) just have "patches@python.org" I'm assuming the mailing list would be Guido-approved and the people on it would be required to "deal with the patch size". I think an open list might generate some noise rather than just "work". But again: the structure is ultimately up to Guido. Oops. I see a post from Guido saying "let's do it." In that case, it is probably best to move this discussion to the new list. I believe we need a statement of subscription policy from Guido. Or at least something to the effect of "python-dev members are free to subscribe, but you are expected to directly/positively contribute." I am presuming in all cases, that it would be administratively closed to non-python-dev members. Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
