[sr-dev] [OFFTOPIC] Cross-posting

[Peter Dunkley]

Hello,

I think that there are some circumstances where cross posting is 
desirable.  For example, when Daniel is putting out announcements about 
releases and upcoming events.  Cross-posting was also used when the 
community was arranging a get-together at FOSDEM.  Kamailio developers 
and users all turned up to this meeting and some were people who 
primarily read sr-dev and others primarily read sr-users.

A blanket stop on cross-posting is probably a bad idea - but 
cross-posting should be a relatively rare event.  I think any education 
should be about using the right list for the right things.  Using 
Kamailio questions to sr-users and developer discussion to sr-dev.

Regards,

Peter
