Hi,
this came up on IRC again, but I think the issue requires wider discussion: Several people asked if gerrit mails can be moved to a separate mailing list to reduce the "mechanic" noise.
We're highly flexible there, so we can keep it like it is, reduce the number of mail types, send different types to different lists, ...
One proposal was to move all gerrit mail to coreboot-gerrit@ or so. A variant of that could be to move all gerrit mail to coreboot-gerrit@ except for the "change merged to master" mails, so people have an easier overview on what happens in our main branch.
So asking generally: Do you like it the way it is, or do you think it should change, and how?
I'd prefer if they were on a separate email list. Or, if on the same list, to be just the most important messages. Another thing that would help would be to shorten the subject line - the most important parts (the description of the patch) should be at the beginning of the subject.
Cheers, -Kevin
