Dear IoTivity Community,
I have not received any objections to the timing of the IoTivity mailing list migration scheduled for Tuesday, April 24 between 9:30am and 11am PDT. As a reminder, during this 90 minute timeframe, delivery of messages will be delayed but not lost. See the email below for more details. Unless I receive any objections by end of day tomorrow, I will confirm with Linux Foundation that they can proceed with the mailing list migration on April 24. Best regards, Aja Murray OCF Staff From: Brandy Hartley [mailto:bhart...@linuxfoundation.org] Sent: Saturday, March 17, 2018 8:59 AM To: staff <st...@openconnectivity.org <mailto:st...@openconnectivity.org> > Subject: Migration Iotivity mailing lists from Mailman to our managed service provider Groups.io Hello Aja, The Linux Foundation is moving our mailing list service to a new vendor's platform called Groups.io. We've already moved 11 projects over to the service, including some of our most active projects, CNCF and Cloud Foundry. We are planning to set your project up with Groups.io service and migrate your existing mailing list archives and user lists, including user mail delivery preferences and those with extra permissions such as moderator or owner status. We'd like this migration occur on Tue 4/24 between 9:30am and 11am PDT. During the migration window you will still be able to access the archives, however the delivery of messages to the mailing lists will be delayed during this window until after the migration of the archives and list members are complete. We will turn off new list signups during the migration window, then this functionality will be restored once it is complete. FAQs What are the key differences between Mailman and Groups.io? * Groups.io has a modern interface, robust user security model, and interactive, searchable archives * Groups.io provides advanced features including muting threads and integrations with modern tools like GitHub, Slack, and Trello * It also has optional extras like a shared calendar, polling, chat, a wiki, and more * Groups.io uses a concept of subgroups, where members first join the project “group” (a master list), then they choose the specific “subgroup” lists they want to subscribe to. * One of the nice features of Groups.io is that you log in once, and then use the My Groups dropdown in the top menu and easily move between the lists that you are participating in without logging in to each of them separately. How is the experience different for me as a list moderator or participant? * In many ways, it is very much the same. You will still find the main group at your existing URL and sub-groups equate to the more focused mailing lists based on the community’s needs. Groups.io’s simple but highly functional UI that will make the experience of moderating or participating in the community discussions more enjoyable. If you’d like to learn more about using Groups.io , please reference their <https://groups.io/static/help> help documentation.
