Re: Mailing list policy change?

As a humble user, I do not know, but I want to mention two things:

1) The debian homepage at <http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct> asks not to CC unless explicitly requested to.

2) At least I read the debian lists via the nntp-interface at news.gmane.org, and find that to be a very convenient way, as I can access the list (using icedove) without getting lots of mails to my private email account(s). Thus I am not subscribed to any debian lists, but read more than a dozen of them. I have no idea how common that practice is, and gmane.org seems not to provide such statistics.

Johan
