Hey, I couldn't care less on what list ARM development happens on. All I wanted to do is point out that the way you handle your mailing list is a PITA for contributors that would like to send occasional ARM patches but don't want to invest the energy to subscribe to your list. And yes, even if it's a moderated list, not a subscriber-only list, it's a PITA all the same.
I really have no interest in arguing about it because it's the ARM community that's losing out, not me. (Or maybe you're just not interested in minor contributors, dunno.)
Pekka
