• fun with mailinglists (was Re: Is chromium updated?)

    From Emmanuel Halbwachs@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 13 11:50:02 2020
    John Runyon (Fri 2020-11-13 05:26:56 -0500) :
    Why do we have such messages on the security mailing list? Is there a way to get actual security team announcements without all this spam?

    Yes, there is such a list [1]. This list [2] is for (quote):

    Discussion about security issues, including cryptographic issues,
    that are of interest to all parts of the Debian community.

    Please note that this is NOT an announcement mailing list. If
    you're looking for security advisories from Debian, subscribe to
    debian-security-announce instead.

    This list is not moderated; posting is allowed by anyone.

    '-announce' suffix)

    Imagine calling yourself a “Debian contributor” because you... reported a few bugs? Guess I’m a Debian contributor too.

    Why do we have such messages on the security mailing list? Is there a way
    to get actual security team announcements without all this spam? There is, after all, no shortage of Debian or Linux users mailing lists on which such messages could be posted.

    Come on man, if someone contributes, they contribute. Big or small.

    And sure, let's quiet down a bit~

    I was wrong about being _contributor_, sorry (misunderstood
    the definition).
