This one was meant to provide backports of some of our games for older (Hardy, Intrepid) Ubuntu releases via a PPA, but can also used as you describe: > I'm curious what others think about taking the following > (separable) steps: > > a) Setting pkg-games-devel@l.a.d.o as the contact for the team > > This would send any launchpad mail generated for the team (from bug > subscriptions, PPA updates, etc.) to the mailing list, rather than team > members. Good idea, but maybe pkg-games-ubuntu@l.a.d.o? Dunno if we want to mix both, but prolly we do. > b) Setting the team as a bug contact for all the packages maintained by > the team.

But yes, noticing that there is a bug at ubuntu would be really great. > optional (c): > If most of the members of the team would prefer that > pkg-games-devel@l.a.d.o not be used also for Ubuntu bugmail, and also > support the use of this launchpad team to track packages in Ubuntu, it > is certainly possible to create a pkg-games@launchpad address for this > purpose instead. Ugh, that was my pkg-games-ubuntu@... scratch my idea then. Regards Evgeni Golov
