[gentoo-dev-announce] gentoo-commits list lives!

Hi folks,

After much toiling, Infra has finally got the commits list active.
You can subscribe to it as per normal, but be aware that it is high traffic.
Only CVS traffic is live so far, but SVN will follow soon.

If you are interested in following subsections of the list, there are some
special headers in the list mails. Here's an example from earlier:

X-VCS-Repository: gentoo-x86
X-VCS-Files: udev-115-r2.ebuild
X-VCS-Directories: sys-fs/udev
X-VCS-Committer: zzam
X-VCS-Committer-Name: Matthias Schwarzott,,,

The list mails are available on Archives as well.

For the "From" field, we are populating it using your GECOS data from LDAP
followed by your username. I'm aware that lots of users have problems in their
GECOS data, and I'm going to work on cleaning that up shortly along with some
LDAP work that is in progress.

Thanks to:
pylon - Doing most of the work on the large loginfo script.
robbat2 - Hunting the bugs and hooking it up to lists

No thanks to:
CVS and Perl, for not giving any indication that SIGPIPE was happening.
