That's a list for maintainers, not users. E.g. not something you would post announcements of new packages in. But of course James and anyone else doing packaging is welcome to join it, I believe all repos not hosted on redhat.com are on this list. FWIW I don't feel like James is spamming this list. His work is focused around EOL'd releases that have been picked up by Fedora Legacy. The user group he is targeting *is* on this list. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
