We have received a request for adding the [email protected] mailing list to the Gmane mail-to-news gateway/archive. A subscription request message has been sent. If this is contrary to your wishes, please send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] saying so, and the list will be removed from Gmane.
Gmane is a mail-to-news portal that never expires its messages. It therefore also functions as a mailing list archive. It's a bi-directional gateway, but Gmane verifies that its users' email addresses are valid before passing the messages through the news-to-mail gateway. (Groups can also be made "read-only", which means that Gmane won't forward any messages at all to the mailing list.)
The following parameters are set for this mailing list:
* Newsgroup name: gmane.education.code4lib * Mailing list address: [email protected] * The gateway is bi-directional * Address encryption is off * Spam detection is on * The list is described as: "Programming for Library/InfoSci Folks" * News URL: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.education.code4lib * Web URL: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.education.code4lib
This newsgroup will be created when the first message from the mailing list arrives.
For more information about the Gmane project, go to <URL: http://gmane.org/>.
This request was handled by [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Nicolas Bareil).
I got the message above describing how Code4Lib has been added to a thing called Gmane.
Apparently Gmane is a mailing archiver and usenet news feeder. I have no secrets, and I don't really mind this sort of thing happening to our list, but what do y'all think? Should I do nothing, or should I try to remove Code4Lib from their archive?
