Hi Ian,
On that page, add a description of what savannah-users is for and what
savannah-help-public is for.
Good question. In my mind, savannah-users is more for discussion "among"
users and savannah-help-public is more for sending queries "to" the
savannah maintainers. But in practice, as far as I can see, this amounts
to a distinction without a difference. (Not helped by the
savannah-help-public and savannah-hackers being the same thing.)
We also seem to use savannah-users for occasional status reports and
less-permanent announcements (like that upgrade snag), instead of
savannah-announce.
I changed the descriptions (overwriting Bob's valiant effort :) to:
savannah-hackers For occasional queries and reports to the Savannah
maintainers. Now referred to as savannah-help-public ...
savannah-users Discussions among Savannah users, informal
announcements and status reports.
though I'm not sure it's really an improvement :(. -k
