Subject: Email list for Gentoo on Musl

Hi everyone,

I'd like to make people aware of a new-ish email list for Gentoo on musl 
--- that's basically a full Gentoo system (5000+ packages) with musl 
replacing glibc.  If you've seen my previous posts you know that I've 
been working on that and recently hit a milestone with a full desktop 
system.

Up till now I've been (ab)using the gentoo-hardened@....o email list for 
occasional announcements and discussion.  And out of courtesy I've 
avoided (ab)using musl@....c.  We need a place to submit patches and 
have gentoo-musl specific discussions without poluting these other 
lists. So ... I'd like to encourage you to use

   gentoo-musl@...ts.gentoo.org

for discussions about Gentoo on musl.

Here are some links describing the project so you have some idea what 
this list is about:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Hardened_musl - minimal gentoo 
images (aka stage3's) for various arches/abis using our vanilla and 
hardened compiler

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Hardened_musl/Bluedragon - a 
security-enhanced, fully featured XFCE4 desktop, amd64 Gentoo system, 
built with musl.

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:RelEng_GRS - the release 
engineering tool by which the desktop is built - its of interest for 
maintaining the desktop using prebuilt packages

http://releases.freeharbor.net/ - the host housing the release image, 
extra packages and "tinderbox report" for failed packages.

I hope this message wasn't too intrusive but hopefully this will direct 
discussion to where discussion belongs.
