That would be horrible to see this list disappear. There is so much archived knowledge and user’s with much wisdom here. One of my favorite list, Speech-Dev (oddly a different list than Speech-Developers), vanished. Even the archives beyond 2004, gone. There was a treasure-trove related to speech development that is now extinct. If you Google them, there are still some references but the article results in “The page you’re looking for can’t be found”.
Example: https://lists.apple.com/archives/speech-dev/2012/Aug/msg00005.html (gone) I would really hate to see this list go away. Where on Earth would you find a collection of helpful and knowledgeable people interested in the same domain specific subjects you are? W.

Just a heads up ... Seems that [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> has received notice as potentially going away. Considering this may be a sign of things to come, Jens Alfke has taken it upon himself to create parallel groups for most/all of the lists.apple.com<http://lists.apple.com> at groups.io<http://groups.io> I haven't received any such notification for coreaudio-api but hoping to follow form, I did put in a request for him to create [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. I"m not sure if there is any impetus to change over and use groups.io<http://groups.io> quite yet but thought I'd just put it out there for conversation. Please see the attached ...

As you say, it isn't getting much use, presumably in part because it has not been re-advertised on this list. Repetition is the heart and soul of marketing. Mea culpa — I’m the one who set it up, but I suck at marketing/promotion/sales/etc. I’m more the type who shyly raises his hand and says “Um, I made something…”, and then gets sad when people don’t rush over and look at it, and goes home and listens to the Cure in his bedroom. But I’m working on it. So, take 2: Since xcode-users and lists.apple.com<http://lists.apple.com> are clearly going away, I made a replacement on the free-mailing-list site groups.io<http://groups.io>, which is kind of like Google Groups but better. The groups are simultaneously mailing lists and web forums (and dessert toppings), they support searchable archives and wikis and calendars and other frills, and the UI is pretty nice. The top level group is here: https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/main It’s mostly a container for subgroups, of which there are currently five (but I’m open to adding more.)

Tell your friends! And if anyone who doesn’t suck at marketing would like to spread the word, I would be grateful :) —Jens
