But having too many list archives can be cumbersome. What about enforcing some tags in the mail titles or using some email aliases redirecting to dev@dpdk.org? It would allow to filter emails. > and to keep track of > each multiple lists, especially as there will no doubt be patch sets > that will go into a sub tree that also contain changes which affect code > outside of that tree. If a patchset is about crypto, it must be managed in the crypto tree, even if it touches small parts of EAL and obviously doc, config, apps. But the crypto API must be changed with more care. Maybe there could be a double-ack rule. > I'm not sure if separate patchwork lists are possible without separate > mailing lists but we could work around that by allowing sub-tree > committers access to modify the main patchwork list, when the commit > patches. It's better to have dedicated patchwork to make review of a specific area easier. By using tags or mail alias, we can redirect to the right patchwork. Opinions?
