Since there weren't many comments in this thread from the core ARM Linux
developers, I find it a bit silly to get upset like this. But, well, in
the end it's your decision and some people may find that moving to a
non-subscribers list is a good thing (and may also save you and Erik
some time). Others may find it was a bad decision, it's hard to say.

If you really do this, could you please, at least for couple of weeks,
forward the redirect the current mailing list messages to the
linux-arm@vger list (the quickest option currently)? Alternatively,
simply add an automated reply that people should move to that list?
There are ongoing threads which shouldn't be affected by this row.

Thanks.
