/me thinks you must not be subscribed to the debian-project list?

Sigh. How many mailing lists does Debian have anyway? And can anybody possibly believe I don't follow enough lists?

But, yes, you're right, I wasn't on debian-project. I guess I'll start watching it. There's a lot of interesting stuff there that I wish I'd seen.

Out of wild curiosity, how many lists *are* you subscribed to? How much of your day do you spend reading[1] email?

[1] For appropriate definitions of 'reading' - perhaps I should say 'processing' instead, depending on the volume?

I don't know what a rhetorical question means.

http://lists.debian.org/ has the full list of mailing lists run by the Debian project itself. It has 218 lists.

There are some mailing lists not run by the project, and there are some package-specific lists on alioth.debian.org, but I doubt those are relevant except for very narrow focus groups.
