I've temporarily broken the connection from github to 
[email protected].  When we have something like a consensus on how 
to organize the system, I'll do whatever is appropriate and possible.

    Dear Chris, All,
    
    
    yes, advising people to resign from cf-metadata to avoid messages from 
github is a bit over the top.
    
    
    As an interim, I believe that the cf-metadata administrator could bar 
github from sending messages to this list (mailman offers this option on the 
admin page) until we have worked out how it should work.
    
    
    regards,
    
    Martin

    Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] Turning off gitHub!!!!
    
    By the way, if we DO use a mailing list for a gitHub/TRAC bridge, could we 
please gve it a name other than:
    
    cf-metadata
    
    It's really confusing to figure out which one I should mail to.
    
    How about cf-metadata-github-bridge or something?

    Apparently the gitHub mirroring is really driving folks crazy -- we really 
need to turn it off until it's done properly.
    
    Action #1:
    
    Who knows the password of the  cf-metadata-list gitHub user???
    
    https://github.com/cf-metadata-list
    
    That person can go log into gitHub as that user, and stop watching the 
Issue at hand -- I'm not anyone else can easily do that.
    
    Action #2
    
    Maybe turn off the list that's hooked up to gitHub? That would stopp all 
this 'till we figure it out.
    
    Action #3
    
    post here, VERY CLEARLY, how folks can opt out of the gitHub mirroring list.
    
    NOTE to CASUAL USERS:
    
    I *think* the reason you all are having trouble opting out is that there 
are TWP cf-metadata lists:
    
    One is the usual one, hosted by ucar:
    
    http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/cf-metadata
    
    The other is hosted by llnl, and handles the gitHub (and TRAC??) email. I 
*think* everyone that subscribed to the regular list gets aauto-subscribed to 
the other list. here's a bit of info on that:
    
    The discussions carried out on the Trac site (and now gitHub) are sent to 
subscribers of this list via messages from the majordomo list, 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. You will 
automatically be subscribed to that list. To unsubscribe, without unsubscribing 
from this list, send a message to 
"[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" with "unsubscribe 
cf-metadata" in the body of your message.
