Hello,
For the last few weeks there was probably 1000+ e-mails about project 
Indiana. That is brilliant, since it tells that this conversation was 
really needed, and this kind of project is also needed.

I was trying to follow the threads, some people were pointing very 
important things and some just complaining without being creative. I 
think that they just do like to complain :)

First people received a lot of messages on the opensolaris-discuss, than 
the conversation was spreading in the light speed to the other mailing 
lists.

(I will try to complain a little. I hope with some creative thought).

Maybe this is a time to create indiana-discuss mailing list, and just 
point to alias on the other mailing-lists, so the discussion will move 
up there. Why?

 - people that are returning after 3 days off will not have 200+ 
messages in the mailbox (most of them will not even try to touch the thread)
 - everything will be in one place, so there will be no cross mailing
 - people that are not interested, will not resign from subscribing to 
the mailing lists, just because they get to much messages
 - much more reasons :)

best
