Hello,
Two updates:
- We have been upgrading mailing lists to mailman3, now more than 1/4th of
mailing lists have been migrated, more follow today and next week. Some
actions needed (see below)
- We created a new mailing list called listadmins-announce and we are
turning listadmins to a discussion mailing list. So If you don't wish to be
involved in mailing list administration discussions, you can unsubscribe
from listadmins [1] [2]. But being a member of listadmins-announce is not
optional (you can unsubscribe, but you'll be automatically added back in
the next update).
*More on upgrade to mm3:*
Upgrading +700 mailing lists and more than 17 years of digital archive
is... challenging and Mailman3, while being much better than mailman2, is
not perfect.
One known issue is that the upgrade script sometimes truncates the info
field. We have made changes and reported it to upstream to mitigate it but
some mailing lists might not be easily fixable (python version
incompatibilities, etc.). So If your mailing list has been upgraded, please
check and fix that if it happens. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Private mailing lists won't be upgraded for now (possibly later next week
or the week after).
I recommend creating a central account [3] so you can have better control
over mailing lists you are a member of or you are an admin.
Please report any issues to us.
Happy emailing
