[openstack-community] Future of this mailing list
After looking back through the last 6 months worth of list archives, there have been 9 threads: 1 was an announcement about the OpenStack Annual Report and the other 8 were technical support requests which needed to be referred to the openstack-discuss mailing list. Even though the description for this list clearly says it's not for support questions, that seems to be pretty much the only thing anyone besides foundation staff send to it. So with that in mind, is this list still serving any useful purpose? Should we consider retiring it or folding it into another list (maybe openstack-discuss)? -- Jeremy Stanley
A bit of a related question - what is the best place to goto for community support ? Thanks

During Summit cycles this list usually gets quite a bit of interaction, so I’d say it’s still useful for that purpose since the audience is a bit more specific than the discuss list. Ashlee
