OK, I must admit is was a very bad idea of me to subscribe our devel at openvz dot org mailing list to containers at linux-foundation dot com mailing list.
This is to announce that from now on devel@ is a separate list, not mirroring containers@ or anything. From now on, if the topic is openvz-specific, like a patch to OpenVZ, please use devel@. If the topic is about containers (as appearing in mainline), use containers@.
Let me explain. Initially, when we started moving OpenVZ project forward, we wanted to discuss all the things about containers on a mailing list, and therefore I created devel@. Later, then other parties joined, it was decided to create containers at osdl.org mailing list (remember OSDL later became the Linux Foundation). At that time I was worried that the discussions will split, and decided to just subscribe our devel@ to containers@, so devel@ becomes a super-set of containers@ (i.e. every message posted to containers@ will appear on devel@, but not vice versa).
Of course it ended up being a big mess. Better late than never, mess is no more!
