Re: [9fans] [9fans-bounces@cse.psu.edu: Auto-discard notification]

Interesting, that is a plan9-changes email. I'll look if anyone
@netpath.net is subscribed and kick them out (the repply-to for
plan9-changes is 9fans, because
russ didn't want a separate list for discussion of patches, but he
didn't want the patches themselves posted to 9fans either *sigh*)

Which reminds me, a plan9-tech list has been created because some gsoc
participants didn't feel like having technical discussions in 9fans,
which this days
seems to be rather full of offtopic banter and other noise.
