<div dir="ltr">I agree that the mechanics would have to be worked out carefully to make sure that kind of thing doesn't happen. I'm envisioning some sort of automated process to make the announcement happen rather than relying on the proposer to do the cross-posting. Since we use a wiki template for proposals, in theory this is automatable with some work.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jan 6, 2021 at 5:45 PM Graeme Fitzpatrick <<a href="mailto:graemefitz1@gmail.com">graemefitz1@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, 6 Jan 2021 at 22:48, Brian M.

I think many people prefer not to subscribe to the list because it is high volume, but would be interested in subscribing to a list that only has RFC/vote announcements.

The key would be moderating that list in such a way that only announcements are posted there while discussion still happens on tagging in the usual way.</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I also like the idea of a RFC / Voting list but can see that it would raise some problems as well.</div><div><br></div><div>You'd have to post to 2 separate lists to say "RFC on this proposal", then discuss it on the tagging list as well as the talk page, & probably also on the RFC list as well, because somebody will invariably make a comment on there :-(</div><div><br></div><div>& then somebody will get cross, & vote No because you didn't respond to their comment, which has been buried in a mass of others :-(</div><div><br></div><div>Starts getting complicated very quickly.</div><div><br></div><div>
