  3. Ummm? Specifics? by consolidatedbord · · Score: 4, Insightful

    What do you find interesting, and what do you need to be informed about?
    Security?
    Wine updates?
    http://seclists.org/
    http://www.cert.org/
    Those are interesting and informative for me, but a perl developer can probably give a damn about the latest nmap release.

    What are your needs?

  6. Bosst for C++ by David+Greene · · Score: 3, Informative

    The Boost developer mailing list provides a wealth of practical experience and innovative software engineering for the C++ programmer. Not only do you learn how the amazing libraries work, you get to see the thought and development process that goes into them. I did not really understand templates until I joined this list.
