Set up for new mailing lists

Greets,

I'm about to make the INFRA request to migrate our mailing lists.  For new
projects, this step is documented at...

    http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#request-mailing-lists

Migration is a little different.  Infra will set up the new lists, copy all
subscriber information, and set up forwards for the old lists.  This is how
it is done when e.g. a project graduates from incubation:

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-2656 (Nutch migration to TLP)

I note that it is possible to set up subject prefixes:  

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-2777 (Zeta dev prefixing)

Subject prefixes are not a tradition for Lucene sub-projects, but I prefer it,
and since Peter goes so far as to manually insert "[Lucy]" into our subject
headers, I imagine he does too. :)  It is possible to filter based on
recipient, but anyone who has set up such filters is about to have them break
as the mailing list address changes from @lucene.a.o to @infrastructor.a.o --
and during a Lucy migration to TLP, such filtering would break once again.

I propose subject prefixes matching the list names:

    lucy-dev@incubator       [lucy-dev]
    lucy-users@incubator     [lucy-users]
    lucy-commits@incubator   [lucy-commits]
    lucy-private@incubator   [lucy-private]

Additionally, the moderators for the existing Lucy lists are myself and Dave
Balmain (who's inactive).  For the new lists, we should have more than just
me.

    http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#request-mailing-lists

    Apache mailing lists require volunteer moderators. New moderators can be
    changed later but at least one volunteer is required before the mailing
    lists can be set up. Moderation is a reasonably easy task though
    moderators may want to set up spam filtering. Having at least three
    moderators is recommended to spread the load. 

Volunteers?  It hasn't been a heavy burden.  

Marvin Humphrey

Ehrm,

Guys, I would recommend just filing INFRA requests here [1]. INFRA can set up all the mailing lists below for you and are the only ones with Apache karma necessary to do so.

I'd be happy to file the tickets, if you guys are OK with that.

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks and welcome back, Simon.  :)

When Doug requested the original Lucy lists
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-832), we used my marvin@a.o email
address as a listmod, but that's aparently not a requirement and this time I'm
going to use my rectangular.com address.  It's slightly more convenient that
way for certain actions.

With that in mind, what addresses would you all like to use for list
moderation?  Your workaday email accounts?

    peter AT peknet DOT com
    simon.willnauer AT gmail DOT com
    chris.a.mattmann AT jpl DOT nasa DOT gov
    ???? AT mikemccandless DOT com

Mike, you're subscribed to this list using the lucene@mikemccandless alias.
Do you want to use that, mikemccand@a.o, or something else?

I like to handle filing the INFRA tickets.  However, as with our Mentors, I'm
cognizant of the Infrastructure team's volunteer time -- so if possible, I'd
like to give them a single ticket with all our lists, all our customization
requests, all our listmods.  That way they only have to do the work once and
we don't have to keep going back for more.

I like to handle filing the INFRA tickets.  However, as with our Mentors, I'm
cognizant of the Infrastructure team's volunteer time -- so if possible, I'd
like to give them a single ticket with all our lists, all our customization
requests, all our listmods.  That way they only have to do the work once and
we don't have to keep going back for more.

I'd be happy to be a list mod for Lucy.

Oh, also it wasn't clear to me from the reply to this mail whether you guys were about to file INFRA tickets to get the mailing lists set up or to try and do that yourself. It looks like you know what to do, so please +1, move fwd...don't mind me!
