Migrate mail list to Apache

[Bob Schellink <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

We have a public mail list available at Apache -> 
click-dev@incubator.apache.org

As our traffic is relatively low this list will be used for both dev 
and user discussions.

I think we should start thinking of migrating from sourceforge.

One thing I would like to keep is gmane and nabble access and have the 
current archives available.

Is everyone allowed to update the address of the above services or 
only an administrator?

regards

bob

The click-user@incubator.apache.org list is available now.

Malcolm, any news on retrieving the current list of subscribers from 
SourceForge?

Ok if nobody objects I'll log a JIRA to add a 
click-user@incubator.apache.org

Hmm not sure as I don't have access to SF mailman, but perhaps Malcolm 
can check?

kind regards

Hi Bob,

I would still recommend setting a separate user list. Such topic  
separation should be beneficial going forward, regardless of the  
traffic. That's up to you to decide, but you'll probably be the only  
Apache project without a user list.

Now the migration. Is there a way to get a subscriber list from SF? If  
so, a list moderator (Henning?) should be able to subscribe them via  
email interface, or we can open an infra ticket to do it in bulk.

I think you or anyone else can handle Gmane and Nabble update. Not  
sure how that works, but this is certainly outside of the Apache infra  
scope (most likely Gmane and Nabble have an address subscribed to the  
list, so once the mails start arriving from the new address, they'll  
start archiving them, but that's something to check with them).
