I've been hacking at the JitterBug sources a little, so that it should work better with mailing lists. It has been running with the core team list for a while and seems to be OK. I will now move the forwarding address to the r-devel list where it really belongs. I hope this will make it easier for people outside the core team to contribute to the development of R by participating in the discussions and helping to analyse bug reports. Points to note: All entries (web or email) to R-bugs are echoed to R-devel, *except* those marked "private" on the web form, and/or containing the word PRIVATE (in uppercase) in the subject field. The Reports arrive at R-devel with R-bugs in the Cc: field, so if you reply to "sender and all recipients" (AKA "wide reply") the reply gets registered as a followup in R-bugs. There is code in Jitterbug to prevent the autoforwarding of messages which have already been copied to R-devel, but note that if the original sender also reads R-devel, he or she will still get the reply twice, so you may still need to edit the headers. Please do *not* Cc: bug reports to other lists. This will only cause most people to receive it in two versions, one of which will be lacking the Problem Report identifier (PR# xxx). If someone then replies to "all recipients", this will open up a *new* Problem Report, etc. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
