But creating a linux-bug list with this policy:
- The stable kernel series point to this lists - Annoncement to new kernel point to the normal list (the bug to newer kernel are classified 'development') - Kernel maintainers post to the bug list the 'annonces' the of solved bugs - All discussion about kernel series 0.01, 2.0 and 2.2 (bug hunting series) should go in this new list
In this manner we: - have a bug tracking system (a' la Linux) - We can grep quikly to see if a new bug to an old kernel is aready closed.
The new list, IMHO, doesn't duplicate trafic, but I think it don't reduce much of linux-kernel traffic. (But provide a quicker references of the know bugs).
