When signing up for the newsletter we have to " I agree to receive these communications from SourceForge.net...." Requiring me to accept spam is very disingenuous. Please leave Sorceforge. |

We could ask the sourceware overseers to take over the mailinglists. sourceware used to be very strict about not allowing HTML email. But I believe they will now strip such HTML attachments instead of just bouncing them. Are others bothered by the current mailinglist arrangement? Should we start a discussion about moving to sourceware? (sourceware is where our current git repository lives) Cheers, Mark |

It's rare enough that I don't pay much attention. I really don't think it's a problem. YMMV. -- David Chapman dcc...@ac...
