Dear Dag and rest of Linux-IrDA enthusiasts, If Sourceforge would like to sponsor/support our mailing list, it is great as a good alternative. Unless of course, there are other EDU places that would be interested and may be considered.
Your hard dedication since the early stages of this mailing list and the support from the Uni of Tromso, is in deed. Highly commended and admirable. My suggestion is to inform active members, of the new location (when available), so that each and every one would have the opportunity to manually register, minimizing the workload on your side. And separately, those that may have been disabled. Perhaps the information of the new location may trigger they renewed interest. By the way, your undertaking in filtering out unsolicited mail, is very effective. Kind regards, Felix -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dag Brattli Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 10:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IrDA]Time to move the mailing lists Hi all, It's time to start the work of moving the Linux-IrDA and IrDA mailing lists to Sourceforge (or some other place if preferred). The Pasta project at the University of Troms� have been very kind in hosting these lists for many years now, but has said that they would prefer that the lists are moved to somewhere else since there's no local maintainer anymore (I stopped working there a long time ago). I'm not sure what the best strategy is, but it's probably best that we just create the new lists somewhere and let people resubscribe, since many (~30%) of the 591 subscribers have already been disabled (probably because of mail bouncing). If somebody wants to move all the subscribers, then I can provide the admin password for the current lists, and I can also ask the Pasta project if it's possible to produce a plain text file of all the subscribers. I'm not sure if it's possible to transfer the lists in a way that preserves the subscriber options tho' -- Dag _______________________________________________ IrDA mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pasta.cs.uit.no/mailman/listinfo/irda _______________________________________________ Linux-IrDA mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pasta.cs.UiT.No/mailman/listinfo/linux-irda
