Dear IoTivity Community,
Due to scheduling conflicts, the migration of the IoTivity mailing lists to the Groups.io service has been rescheduled to Wednesday, May 9 from 9:30 - 11am PDT. I have checked with key stakeholders and they agreed with this date, but please let me know by early next week if you have any concerns or questions before I confirm the May 9th transition. Included below are the details about the migration again for your reference. Best regards, Aja Murray OCF Staff Moving to Groups.io service and migrate existing mailing list archives and user lists, including user mail delivery preferences and those with extra permissions such as moderator or owner status. 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.
