We will of course be doing that where viable, but many upstreams for games are dead, which is what this whole discussion is about.
PS: please follow the lists code of conduct and stop CCing me.
1) Please get someone to configure the mailing list properly then, if I hit reply in my mailer the reply gets send to you, so I hit reply-to-all, which according to global netiquete is the right thing todo anyways as there might be people not on the list in the CC. This works correct for all lists I'm subscribed too (which are quite a few from various FOSS projects), except for debian-devel-games.
2) Please stop sending those very obnoxious auto replies when you are CC'ed in a mail also send to the list. That is atleast as bad, if not worse as the offence you are complaining about. As for the code of conduct, the internet is larger then just Debian's little corner, and Debian is deviating from what is normal here. Also you seem to be the only one complaining about this.
