In the last few months, the traffic on the linux-kernel list has been unbearably high, to the level of becoming a real distraction in debugging the kernel. In order to alleviate this problem and to give the 'off-topic folks' their own home, 3 new mailing lists have been created: -- kernel-doc@nl.linux.org: Writing, proof-reading and discussing the kernel documentation. This is also where newbies should go if they can't find the documentation (not being able to find documentation is, after all, a lack of documentation). -- linux-future@nl.linux.org: Long-term OS design, feature drooling and generic OS science fiction. Everyone is welcome to think about the future of the Linux system (and the kernel in particular). Discussions should only move to linux-kernel as soon as we reach the debugging stage. -- linux-legal@nl.linux.org: GPL, BSD, Artistic, LGPL, MPL, QPL, PD, etc... It's a jungle out there, a legal jungle. Make sure you (and others) don't get lost in it. Help map out the legal jungle or find out your own (in)abilities and legal risks. You can subscribe to any one of those lists by sending a message to: <majordomo@nl.linux.org> with a message body of: "subscribe If you have any questions, feel free to write to me: <riel@nl.linux.org> ---> Lists at nl.linux.org: eulug-action Activities to do with your LUG eulug-announce Announcements of activities and projects eulug-devel Development list (for programmers and gurus) eulug-help Help list (for mere mortals) eulug-misc Other discussions, fun URLs and the latest news kernel-doc Linux kernel documentation; writers and users. linux-future Future developments of the Linux kernel linux-legal Legal aspects of Linux and Open Source The EULUG lists are mainly of interest to European folks, see <http://humbolt.nl.linux.org/eulug/> for more information. The other 3 lists are for a worldwide audience. There are HTML-ized and normal mailing list archives available from <http://humbolt.nl.linux.org/lists/>. <--
