We have a general mailing list page [1], but we also generate individual pages for each project [2].
The general page is very thorough, but does not contain a summary of the lists and archives etc. The individual pages have a neat summary, but don't include the necessary information regarding posting etiquette etc. So I think it would be helpful to users if we tidy this up. It's now possible to customise Maven info reports, including the mailing list page [3], so it is now possible to add more information to the individual reports; for example I created a sample mail-list page at: http://people.apache.org/~sebb/hc/mail-lists.html Unfortunately, it seems to be quite complicated to use the same properties file for all modules, so this would involve adding the same file to each project. [Tedious initially, and tedious to maintain, but hopefully that would not be a frequent occurrence once the wording/layout is agreed initially.] Alternatively, we can just drop the auto-generated mail pages, which all have the same body content anyway (I think). If we do that, we should probably add a table like the one from the generated page [2] to the end of [1] Thoughts?
