---------------------------
Summary: Centralise committee mail_list handling
Key: WHIMSY-234
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-234
Project: Whimsy
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sebb
The committee/podling classes have mail_list methods (in asf/mail.rb) which
know about special cases such as whimsy => whimsical.
Also for non-pmc committees there are some transformations such as tac =>
[email protected].
This means that the code that uses committee.mail_list has to take special
action when constructing a valid mailing list. At the moment such code is
scattered around so there is some repetition. It would be better if the code
could be centralised, with various methods for constructing different types of
mail address, e.g. private, security, dev, such as is already done by
asf/podling.rb.
There is also a need to know how to search for mailing lists, which could be:
*@tlp.apache.org or ctte-*@apache.org etc.
There are too many places that currently have to know how to process the
mail_list output.
