Mailing list
The linux-sunxi community primarly uses a googlegroups mailing list called [email protected]. This mailing list is meant for technical discussion pertaining to sunxi, and for patch review and submission. Subscription is required.
History
Traditionally we used [email protected] (Subscription required) as our mailing list for general discussions. But to not overwhelm it with sunxi (Allwinner A10, A13, ...) specifics, and to allow more technical discussions and patch reviews, a new list was created dedicated to this family of SoCs.
Work is slowly underway on setting up a mailing list server on our own server. But this is not a trivial undertaking.
Subscription
As with any googlegroups mailinglist, you can use an existing google account and use the googlegroups web interface.
You can also send an empty email to [email protected] and follow the instructions to subscribe without being forced to use or have a google account.
Proper conduct
For everyone's sanity please be sure to follow proper netiquette when posting or replying to a post.
Submitting patches
Please follow Linux's submitting patches rules when sending code.
Configuring git for send-email
Edit .git/config and add the following, replacing the smtpserver and from entries:
[sendemail]
smtpserver = smtp.server.domain
to = [email protected]
from = Your Name <[email protected]>
chainreplyto = false
suppressfrom = true
suppresscc = self
You should then be able to just git send-email your patches.
