People have been conscientious about changing subject when starting new threads, and off-topic banter has stayed at a minimum (or flowed appropriately into emacs-tangents). So, good job everyone! I'm happy to see us entering 2016 with such a strong and professional emphasis on getting 25.1 ready. We have 1,118 members on the list today, and our weekly subscription rate is still outpacing our un-subscription rate. At one point I had created a Code of Conduct for this list, but happily it has not been necessary. I think we'll still likely have one -- as published "list etiquette" upon subscription -- but I'm glad to see no one here stands in need of reading such a document. Onward to 2016 and 25.1! John p.s. For those who use Gnus, I've found a variable that makes subject changes turn into new thread roots (i.e., by ignoring the References hierarchy): Set `gnus-thread-ignore-subject' to `nil' --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGcBAEBCgAGBQJWaIsUAAoJEMFE2PTxn+YwfCwL+wXgO+U3sLJOUOdO6H6VBXK2 UpZPf78JP4t3LDPlpPYaMgUbTSHRPwBjCMAVa9yMzKW38UDnPvu4xLyQW9hsqkr6 r8BugZ89nbSL6noCPBZVdYbPv57bWr0Er493ledqZlef8H9+onkYkDWeaek0Ybf3 SbZYE4YJWL3iqBQiRSBAWddE0RTVS11lnZw9r718U21CVwNWHIWLS6MkiiYsP/GW 8vAmlNEXeGty4NJx1n3CZEOQqy7gsOv9KG3BCfcBNjy3ZJ9cAciSMY0I3Mvqu3u3 sPRK4Ciil8VDoOeJvy2loXnjwjgyUntsrm9LAH1AhkLguw0hBcnNfVXwRXD8QvRO zSTbfmYOl5TMNKrMuRm+PE0UtFDTol3Y8hsfxD2X93Oqc49+5JTKy2hZ0C99fi6C JR37k5QKMV2SWur8B80T3L2fD8HWWwRgKAQiYDfm6BdiCfFFyJVC5P4H0GuC6kf/ uedLtHFAC2Cli4vxLCZ3dylsEftGDhjsMahinesZzg== =Y/Ip -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
