We are dealing with linux and open source people, who are always opininated, and some might take offense to you just migrating subscriptions without their approval. I suggest that you set the server up, invite people to help, if they do then so be it, if not then fine. Once it is finished email the LUG and say right guys everyone that wants to subscribe please email me.

Dan,

Have sent u a mail offline showing the setup...needs some work yet. However, while we're working on getting that to work, we should also answer the following questions:

1. Are we just creating another list or moving dubailug mailing list?
2. Are we going to setup a domain, email, jabber server there? If yes, let's start planning for that.
3. How do we transition? Take permission on this list and migrate users? Just drop in a suscription mail to this list?
4. Does the yahoo group continue as a moderated mailing list channel once that gets up?

Let's just get everyone's thoughts and sentiments about this and then actually decide on the course and implement. This is basically coming from the fact that if we collectively decide to really do this...it's really just going to be a matter of a few days of really getting everyone over.

Also, let's try to list down why should we even do this? After all current method works well...
1. Better moderator management?
2. More structure to dubai lug in terms of a domain, announcements, etc?
3. Opening up more channels of communications via jabber server?
etc.
etc.

Everyone...please do let us know your thoughts on these...

Akshay
