Re: [UG-ADMINS] What about making this list public on https://www.mail-archive.com/

Lorna,

I'd ask what does 'away from the main php.net project' mean?

My perception of the change is just that we're moving onto a different tool
and would maintain the same affiliation with php.net that the ug-admins
group as there presently which is, as far as I can tell, just being linked
to from php.net (and perhaps coherance to any polices php.net has about
usage of lists.php.net).
