Mailing list

The linux-sunxi community primarly uses a googlegroups mailing list called linux-sunxi@googlegroups.com. This mailing list is meant for technical discussion pertaining to sunxi, and for patch review and submission. Subscription is required.

= History = Traditionally we used arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk ( 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 [mailto:linux-sunxi+subscribe@googlegroups.comlinux-sunxi+subscribe@googlegroups.com] 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 = linux-sunxi@googlegroups.com from = Your Name  chainreplyto = false suppressfrom = true suppresscc = self

You should then be able to just git send-email your patches.
