1. Forward emails from jsr-314-comments to jsr-314-open.<br>
2. Open up jsr-314-comments (ie. make jsr-314-comments read/write/archived for the world).<br>
<br>
#2 maintains some separation between EG communications and EG+community communications. #1 blurs the lines a bit more than #2 - ie. #1 is somewhat closer to making jsr-314-open truly open/writable to the world. Anyone can send email to jsr-314-open - just that some folks use a different alias. Perhaps eliminating the separation is a good thing.<br>
<br>
I don't have a strong sense for which of these two options would work better in practice. Dan - I know you have spent more time thinking this through than I have. Can you comment on how you view #1 vs #2? Do you have a strong preference for #1?</blockquote>
<div><br>Relaying the message allows a person's voice to be heard but gives them little opportunity for engaging in a conversation. It's like playing telephone and the result is that the message gets garbled. So #2 is what I prefer. Plus, channeling messages from the community directly into the main list just causes confusion. We need those threads isolated and interactive. Then, when there is really an action item, it comes over into the main list and we discuss how to address it formally. It's like having a -users and -dev list split, except in this case -users would not be for questions about how to use JSF, only how to improve it.<br>
