Hello, Pablo, I was surprised and bit puzzled with your message. It is reasonable to think that someone with more information than I have will answer it soon.
But I've found one thing: there are private lists in Savannah. But searching for this I have also found one list that seems to be in a bad situation: its name makes us guess that the list is private; but it is not, I can read the list archives. The first list, the private one, is "Savannah-help-private". Its description says "Savannah help requests that need to be confidential', which is reasonable to exist, should happen eventually. Its page is https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-help-private and has a link to its archives, with a warning "The current archive is only available to the list members". And indeed I cannot see anything posted there, it asks me for user/password, and I don't have them for this list. The other list is "Fsfc-private", and it has no description. I don't know if this list is abandoned, since its last message is from 2007, but it is not private at all. For example: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/fsfc-private/2007-05/index.html . And I'm just posting it here because all the messages I saw there seem to be simple spam. And I am curious with one detail. Which project you participate and/or manage in Savannah? (assuming that these mailing list must always be associated with Savannah projects) Regards, André --- Pablo Angulo wrote: ----- > > I created a mailing list a year ago or so.
