Does anyone know who's behind [email protected]? Maybe I can
email them directly if perhaps they don't check this email often?

Hi David,
Apologies if this request has crossed your desk already; I know my
unreads in my inbox seems to have doubled this week somehow...(should
I send them all to /dev/null? I think I should.)

From Linux Plumbers conf Binutils BoF, Peter had the idea of setting a
toolchain agnostic email list, and from the thread folks seem content
with [email protected]. Is this something you would be
able to help set up for us? If not, is this something you can help
delegate to someone else to set up (any pointers who I should talk to
in that regard)?

The full thread:
https://groups.google.com/g/clang-built-linux/c/GLEkFKlDXfo (sorry I
didn't cc lkml sooner for a proper lore link; I myself am ~1 more bug
away from switching away from google groups forever).

A lore archive would be good?

We do not have any repositories associated with this list, and there
won't be many patches anyway, so patchwork will only be useful as a kind
of mail archive. I can ask to set one up though, if people want that?

That has already been requested.

Hi David,
Thank you for setting up the mailing list. I appreciate it. Now that
the lore archive has been set up
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-toolchains/), would you mind linking to
it from http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html under archives of
linux-toolchains?

Personally, I haven't been using patchwork. I know some maintainers
use it to keep track of reviews of lots of patches, but other than
that is there a major use case for patchwork I'm missing?

Done.
