Hello dspace-tech subscribers,
REMINDER: In just a few short hours (approximately 19UTC / 3pm EDT),
this 'dspace-tech' SourceForge mailing list will be migrated to a new
'dspace-tech' Google Group.
At approximately 19UTC, the following will occur:
1. Any future emails sent to "dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net" will
bounce back and refer you to the new mailing list.
2. Emails from the last few days will be migrated to the new Google
Group (most of the archives have already been migrated).
3. The new 'dspace-tech' Google Group will be activated.
4. Anyone who has already submitted a "Join Request" (see email below)
will be signed up immediately. There's still time to submit it!
5. A final notice will be sent to this old SourceForge mailing list
redirecting everyone else to sign up for the new mailing list.
6. Everyone will be automatically unsubscribed from this old SourceForge
mailing list.
Thanks! We hope to see you on the new dspace-t...@googlegroups.com
mailing list in just a few short hours!
- Tim

Hello dspace-tech subscribers,
This dspace-tech SourceForge mailing list will be migrated to Google
Groups TOMORROW (Thurs, Aug 27) at approximately 19:00 UTC (3pm EDT).
Unfortunately, because of Google Group's strict policies to avoid
spammers, we will be UNABLE to migrate your existing subscription on
your behalf. But, all dspace-tech mailing list archives will be
migrated automatically to the new location.
ACTION REQUIRED: Once the mailing list is migrated, you will need to
re-subscribe yourself to the new "dspace-tech" Google Group in order
to continue receiving these emails. At that point, a final notice will
be sent to all subscribers of this SourceForge list, detailing how to
quickly join the new mailing list. Your email address will also be
unsubscribed from the retired SourceForge mailing list.
OPTIONALLY, if you want to get a jump on things (and ensure you don't
miss a message), you may immediately send a "join request" via one of
these routes:
* Email /dspace-tech+subscr...@googlegroups.com /You'll receive an
email response that tells you to either *reply* to submit your "join
request", or click a link.
* OR visit https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-tech and click
"Apply to join group" (You must be logged in to see that button)
Submitting a "Join Request" will ensure you are immediately subscribed
to the new mailing list once the migration is completed.
This migration from SourceForge to Google Groups is taking place for
the following reasons:
1) SourceForge hosting has been unstable recently. Our SF-hosted
mailing lists have gone down twice in the last six months.
2) Google Groups provides better list search and management capabilities.
3) Other DuraSpace projects use Google Groups and have had good
experiences with it.
4) All other DSpace mailing lists have already moved to Google Groups
in the past few weeks:
