A number of people will be on or have been on the linux-kernel list and
be aware that it is a very high bandwidth list with all sorts of stuff
floating round. Keeping up with it is a full time job at times. A
while back Zack Brown started a weekly summary of the list, called
"Kernel Traffic", for those who can't spare the time to read the whole
list (I am currently one of those), and its very very useful, see
http://www.kt.opensrc.org/index.html
http://www.kt.opensrc.org/latest.html
There is now a new project called "Kernel Cousins"
http://www.kt.opensrc.org/KC/index.html

It would be *very* good if someone (ideally multiple people so that
holidays could be taken) could spare the time to summarise the exim
list in this way. It would take some work - probably of the order of
one to two hours a week although if you are already an avid reader of
the list then you may do it quicker, but it would be very useful
especially for looking back on issues that you know have been seen
before....
Any takers??
