A while back, we we were promised an email channel for gentoo-proxy
folks that did not get on well with IRC. It never materialized,
The mail alias [email protected] (same alias as proxy-maintainers@)
has 22 people on it. It was created 2013/09/26.
The list [email protected] was created 2016/05/29.
I don't see much usage of it, nobody has emailed since August.
https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-proxy-maint/
The request for it was filed and tracked here:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581370
How exactly is that never materialized?
I subscribe on 6/23/2016::
From:: [email protected]
This is the correct address and as it noted, you should get a
confirmation/welcome email when you've successfully subscribed. Did you
get this?
YES, back on 6/23/2016 It never functioned correctly for me.
I think everyone switched to the new list, which I never heard about.

So do I need to apply again, or an I on the list? I went (nomail) cause
at the time reading via gmane.org was working. Perhaps I should just
change the status to receive the mails? I can test post, if that is
helpful?
Keep in mind, also, that as Robin noted above, the list has been very
quiet and will remain that way until people start using it.
So I just now sent email to :
[email protected]
This is not the mailing list address, but the alias for the Proxy
Maintainers project - you can't subscribe to this. That being said, I
couldn't see this email in my client.
NO answer on this attempt. ON this page::
https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/mailing-lists/all-lists.html
The gentoo-proxy-maint mailing list was indeed missing from that list
and has just been added thanks to Robin.
Oh yea, I emailed those quizes timely to one of the devs I was working
with, and got no answer. (sorry, not going to identify that dev). So I
prefer to answer the latest quizes; you guys can figure out who I
should send those to.
It's unfortunate that this happened.
As for whom to send your quizzes to, they would go to your mentor. If
you don't have a mentor, try approaching a developer with whom you've
been working and see if they will be able to. Alternatively, you can
have a look at the new [0]Mentors project, or even send a mail to -dev
asking for one.
I've had (5) mentor/sponsers. All quite friendly. Several wanted to just
put me up for dev. I am flexible, but, I've been put through the ringer
over a (2) year period. That's why when I hear about a kid, whom
gaining gentoo dev status would be most benefical, getting hood-winked
and ran around, I tend to believe their stories; and that angers me.
I look forward to having another contributor among the ranks. :)
