They do have traffic. But it is low.

This has been replaced by the javaweb stuff. The email address is now
a reference (to javaweb-submit I think, I'll confirm when my kerberos
is working again).

The javaweb-people list is where inter-project discussion takes place.

It's *not* a noisy list, just useful for that sorts of gnu-wide things
that might get lost otherwise.

I always think it's nice to have clearly defined lists... but perhaps
you're right... The ClasspathX ones I set up in the certain knowledge
there will be more traffic one day.

The list is for maintainers. The various project maintainers are responsible
for ensuring that they raise issues where they need to.

Having said that some people who aren't maintainers are on the
list and you're involved in a lot of projects so I'm happy to
subscribe you.

If you send a subscription message to that list I will approve it.
