I have been discussing Hurd-related glibc patches on the
<address@hidden> mailing list, and always cced the patches directly to
Roland (being the Hurd parts' glibc maintainer) as I got the feeling that
he didn't always monitor this bug-hurd mailing list really closely. But
if that's fine now and posting (and discussing) the patches directly to /
on <address@hidden> is the way to go then that's fine for me,
of course.

I wouldn't say there has been a communication issue before.
Registering patches in the glibc bugzilla had been made a requirement by
the glibc (release) maintainers to get them into the non-HEAD branches,
and since that was to a large share what we've been working on, this
seemed the most suitable way to publish them, additionally to having
published them on the bug-hurd mailing list.
But if Roland now can take the time to care for and comment on the
Hurd-related patches by having them posted to libc-alpha or directly to
him or whatever (just tell us!) then that's fine.

Thomas
