I was not aware of those lists. One reason for that is probably that they are not even mentioned on the wiki... Google also does not find them for me. > Given the traffic and number of subscribers there, do we really > need lists.d.o lists? Maybe not, but it shows the existing lists do need better advertising. However, personally I dislike mailing lists on alioth as my general experience is that the are poorly administered and not obvious to find for people who are not directly involved. From that perspective switching to l.d.o may be preferable after all. > Which, in my case, tends to come in > spurts, and the prognosis for the future does not look good, given the > development atmosphere in Debian.

I've spent quite a lot of time on trying SELinux and reporting issues in Aug-Okt 2007. With absolutely zero response [1]. So after a while I gave up. [1] I did get some response on the upstream list and IRC channel which I'd joined at the time, amongst others from Russell, but none from you or on the bug reports while you had explicitly promised active support, for example in your Debconf talk.
