The mail has never
been posted to the list, even not after I have sent an additional email to
the list: http://marc.info/?l=linux-video&m=122644300223385&w=2 <http://marc.info/?l=linux-video&m=122644300223385&w=2>
and I don't find any way to contact moderators directly - neither in ML
management information, nor on the ML web-page. Do you by chance know who
moderates the list and if they are still active? How can they be
contacted? The situation seems suboptimal:-(

Yes, seems to happen to others too (as elicited by Hartmut, as an
example: http://marc.info/?l=linux-dvb&m=122522508125601&w=2).

I'm not sure why Red Hat hosts the V4L list (my guess is because its Alan Cox's baby, and Alan, who does pop up from time to time, works for RH). In any regard, unfortunately I don't think there are any current administrators/moderators per se, and suspect that the list is running solely on autopilot.

Hopefully in the future we can get a better situation sorted out, as it certainly is, as you say, suboptimal.

That was its accidental history, and I don't know of any moderators for it. Might make sense to move it to kernel.org so it fits in with the other lists to be honest. That would also help with the confusion sometimes seen where people assume its a list for v4l stuff on Red Hat products

Thanks for the confirmation Alan.

Agreed. Maybe a project in the new year.
