I'm naming subdomains off the top of my head to match=20 high level grouping, but it should be clear this isn't a tenuable=20 path to take both for devs, and for harassing infra with alias requests. > Further, have an alias from @g.o to @.g.o, with an email > returned to the sender if the subdomain is incorrect. Aliasing sucks due to the need to remove the alias after a role=20 changes- if I stop doing recruiting, that alias now needs to be=20 disabled. Either you bounce the email, or you leave the alias in=20 place- either solution sucks if you're trying to do subdomains and=20 have them actually mean something. This also is not even remotely getting into the question of=20 segregating gentoo peeps, something I dislike. It's just not a good way to manage things with people changing roles,=20 nor does the subdomain addition really mean anything imo- if I had all=20 of those aliases, I'd still send from ferringb@g.o. Can't tell what=20 the hell I do based upon the from, still would have to resort to doing=20 some digging... ~harring --+jhVVhN62yS6hEJ8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDf1UhvdBxRoA3VU0RAj2EAKDtwibeQWESBB9a4pXQej6f/fnNNwCg1iNE eSexHmEGdNdOGj7S1jPGCZg= =t10x -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --+jhVVhN62yS6hEJ8-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
