There must be some misunderstanding. I agree with you that FC2 related
discussions don't belong on fedora-list. With "test updates" I meant
"candidates for released-updates".
The "ask to discuss test results on fedora-test-list" won't work. It will
just lead to people saying "my up2date doesn't show that version" and
"this broke my system, I thought Fedora was supposed to be stable!" on the
Fedora-List. If people are interested in testing they will come to the
Fedora-Test-List.
Under your plan if they decide to try an updates-testing package, they
have to join the fedora-test-list to discuss it anyway, why not just
announce it where they can discuss it (like it is now). I for one am
reconsidering my subscription to the Fedora-List, but will most likely
stay subscribed to the Fedora-Test-List.
