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.
Excellent - completely agree. This comment:
Dan Allen suggests we change this arrangement and have
jsr-314-comments(a)jcp.org go straight to the jsr-314-open(a)jcp.org list.
Made me think that you must have had some reason in mind for preferring
the forward approach (#1). Glad to hear that is not the case.
