Leo,
Please let us know how these go for you. We'll want to see how smoothly it
works for you so that our transition can go smoothly, too.

Subject: request cvs renaming (was: Re: cvs repository symlink)
Hi Brian,
I guess this slipped through your busy schedule. Could you find some
time or someone to do this:
a) renaming /home/cvs/jakarta-avalon[-$foo] to /home/cvs/avalon[-$foo]
b) putting something temporary in the cvs/modules file that when someone
goes to update or commit under the old name, tells them to go to the
new one.
c) chgrp'ing /home/cvs/avalon-* to group "avalon", which all of you are
in.
d) for now, making sure that commits to the avalon modules goes to the
"right place" at the [EMAIL PROTECTED] lists, but eventually moving
that to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
thanks!
- Leo

Subject: requesting move of mailing lists to avalon.apache.org
Hi apmail peeps,
The avalon project would like its mailing lists moved in accordance with
the general naming scheme followed at apache. IE we would like all
mailing lists renamed from
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
so
[email protected] --> [email protected]
[email protected] --> [email protected]
[email protected] --> [email protected]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] --> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
IIUC it is possible to simply move over the lists along with all current
subscribers and asf-hosted archives. This is desirable.
I believe it is also possible to automatically send notifications to
people that send messages to the old lists, directing them to the new
one. This is desirable, too.
Finally, could you please coordinate with the apcvs peeps (which just
/might/ be yourselves ;) so that avalon-related cvs messages are sent to
the new address?
Note: I'm volunteering to document the process followed here so if
there's any suggestions in that respect...
thanks in advance,
- Leo Simons

PS: mailing list subscribers, please note and accept there may be some
quirks and/or degradation of service as this move is carried out.
