I would like to automatically send to the Gambit mailing list all the changes that are made to the Gambit repository.
Well if you commit anything like as frequently as I do, that will quickly overwhelm the list. Would it make more sense to have a separate parallel list for this?
Marc made an average of exactly 1 commit a day over the past two weeks; that doesn't seem too much, even if the pace is doubled after people start suggesting patches. This isn't gcc, which has a separate list for checkins, where there were 46 commits yesterday.
gcc has separate lists for general discussions (gcc), help (gcc- help), discussion of patches, which also serves as a record of which patches are committed (gcc-patches), and an automatic record of commits to their svn repository (gcc-cvs, which tells you what their previous content management system was ;-).
I suggest we see what happens for a while with a single list.
