Re: [jsr-314-open] [ADMIN] jsr-314-comments@jcp.org goes straight to jsr-314-open.

Hi Ed - As discussed in the "Open Community Feedback List?" thread, I am very much in favor of opening up the way in which the community provides feedback. It seems like we've got two options for how to do this: 1. Forward emails from jsr-314-comments to jsr-314-open. 2. Open up jsr-314-comments (ie. make jsr-314-comments read/write/ archived for the world). #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. 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? I definitely prefer either of these options over our current situation. Just would like to hear more thoughts on the trade-offs between these options. Oh, and, I am only speculating that #2 is actually a valid option. If it is not, then, yes, I definitely support #1.
