[Linux-aus] Everything Open 2025 - can we have another list for these?

Thu Sep 26 08:48:32 AEST 2024

Hi Andrew,

that was totally my bad, and I apologise to everyone for the cross-posting.
In my haste I replied all rather than removing certain lists and once I had
realised (both times) there was a mild panic and hoped that everyone would
be forgiving for my haste :)

Luckily we had enough interest from my stuff up, the messaging worked but I
can completely understand. We do have a dedicated list for Everything Open
but unfortunately not everyone has subscribed there either so I hope you
bear with us as we build the list.

Thanks,

Sae Ra
