Dear developpers,

I just realised that a lot of things happen on debian-release, however,
its presentation page says "This list should not be considered a
discussion list".

I am in the process of subscribing to lists of a high relevance to
active developpers. Is debian-release one of them ?

Have a nice week-end,

No. It's primarily a contact address for the release team; it will be used
for discussions with individual maintainers about specific release-affecting
matters, but these are not normally of general interest to developers (if
they are they should be on debian-devel).

Debian-release is not and should not be used as a discussion list, but
of course lots of vital information about the release process is passed
on there.


Cheers,
