I would also like the TuxOnIce issues related to drivers,
ACPI, etc. to go to one of the kernel-related lists, but I
think linux-pm may be better for that due to the much lower
traffic.
I guess that makes sense. I guess people can always be
referred to LKML for the issues where the appropriate person
isn't on linux-pm.
Hi Nigel,

I'd really recommend pushing the TuxOnIce discussions to LKML.
CCing linux-pm (or even linux-acpi) on problem reports would
still be recommended, though. :-)
Right. And that may make things easier as far as TuxOnIce users go
too. I have one user who currently subscribes to suspend2-users who
already tried subscribing to LKML and said he didn't like the
experience. Using linux-pm instead would save some pain there.
I am a bit reluctant about LKML from some of the discussions I have
seen there and participated in during CFS / CK discussion. I really
didn't like the tone. Its one thing to say ones own oppinion, another
one to bash at each other as if there was no tomorrow.

This has been refreshingly different on tuxonice mailing lists. I am
also a bit reluctant about the traffic. I already have some quite
high traffic mailinglists with 30000-40000 mails a year, but LKML
would top these easily I guess and I am not that sure I want to put
that load on my mail infrastructure to follow TuxOnIce developments.
I think this is a generic problem for testers of specific kernel
subsystems...

But then LKML is were TuxOnIce is visible to the kernel developer 
community.

I would appreciate linux-pm I think maybe with a guideline to CC to
LKML in usual cases...
Thanks for your feedback. I think that's the way to go.
BTW: toi-3.0-rc3 is rocking along nicely on my two ThinkPads (T42 and
 T23)... I am using 2.6.23.12 with cfs-v24.1...
Great to hear!

Nigel
