Let's make a deadline - not replying by Sunday entails an implicit "yes" vote.

Thanks,

Andrei

I thoroughly object to _this_ (rather than the individuals).  Not voting is an implicit abstain.  It might well mean that the vote is 1 to 0 based on the lack of objections.  But it is NOT a unanimous yes based on no votes.

The problem with such is that it dooms us to inaction.

And the problem with implicit assent is that it dooms us to wrong action.  This vote is already weighted towards approval, why assume that everyone who hasn't responded will vote "yes" as well?  It isn't even necessary in this case.  Speaking personally, I simply hadn't seen this thread until today.  The same message being sent to multiple lists interacted a bit weirdly with my mail routing rules.

Yeah. I always have problems when people cross-post. It's not the end of the world, but I'd prefer that separate posts were sent rather than sending them to all of the lists at the same time.

It would be a pretty big pain in the ass to collect votes if I had to
watch 3 different email threads (I already get some 200 emails per
day). :)

What kind of problems are you having, though? Always works OK for me.

Regards,
Alex

The filters get screwed up by them so they never get triaged properly, and there's no way to fix that, because all 3 of the messages are the same. So, instead of going into the dmd-internals, druntime, and Phobos folders like they should, they all end up in my inbox. If they were sent to each list individually (even if the body of the messages were identical), then that wouldn't be a problem - the "To" fields just need to not contain multiple lists in them. But obviously that isn't the case with cross-posting.

Like I said, it's not the end of the world, but it is annoying.

And actually, I'm inclined to think that most posts like this should just go to the Phobos list rather than being cross-posted, because the conversations end up in up to 3 separate lists this way, and I would think that all of the devs with commit access would be subscribed to the Phobos list. If a post is specifically for internals or druntime, then posting there makes sense, but I don't know that it helps us any to post the same thing to 3 different lists.

Again, it's not the end of the world, but it is somewhat problematic.
