Re: Ending the @netbeans.org mailing lists.

2017-11-28 Thread Geertjan Wielenga
OK, today's the day the announcement re the end of the NetBeans.org mailing
lists is going to go out.

Where the announcement will be sent is listed on the same page as where the
announcement itself is described:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/ending+...@netbeans.org+mailing+lists

For the announcement to the NetBeans.org mailing lists, we're going to put
the e-mail address of all the NetBeans.org mailing lists in the BCC of the
e-mail and then send it in one go to all of them -- no doubt annoying some
percentage of the community, though in the end it's critical that this
message is communicated, we're still getting heaps of e-mails daily in all
kinds of NetBeans.org mailing lists and that has to stop. Better to get the
message across while annoying some people than to not have communicated
this clearly enough.

And then there'll still be some who won't have got the message and will be
annoyed later -- again, the price we pay for being in a project with a 20+
year history with a massive worldwide community, many of whom are simply
using NetBeans without being aware at all of the transition to Apache
despite our numerous attempts to communicate this.

I don't know, but I know plenty of people who personally use it as a
sort of forum. It does imitate a forum and allows replying via web, so
it could be a replacement :) We could try promoting it as a forum

a kind of forum, without requiring mailing list subscriptions?

Daniel, do you know of other Apache projects actively promoting that,

But then the burden of maintaining the forum software is on the PMC,

Also the old mailing lists and forums are synced together .. badly!  I'm
not sure the number of threads on the forums is a good picture of how
active they've actually been.

While forums are not usually a thing, it's not impossible to get it.
OpenOffice runs forums. You could request a VM and set up something
forum-ish there if need be. Something to consider :)

2017-11-27 Thread Christian Lenz
Hi Geertjan,

I think it is a step back but ok to remove the forum. Sure we have maling 
lists, Slack, stackoverflow but to have a forum should not be a Problem today.

Anyway, we can discuss it on a new thread if necessary. Only to let you know, 
what I think and what I see. Forums around the world still active and are made 
for users and user questions. But as I said, if necessary, we can dicuss it on 
an other thread.

Hi Chris,

I feel your pain. :-) However, we are going to simply have to compromise in
some areas -- and one of these is the forums. Moving to a foundation like
Apache means compromising on some points and compromising means sometimes
not getting what you would ideally want. So far, we have everything plus
more in many areas. Apache has been immensely supportive and the help we've
been given has been far more than I had expected. So, now it's our turn to
compromise -- no forums.

Re: Ending the @netbeans.org mailing lists.

2017-11-27 Thread Geertjan Wielenga
Hi Chris,

I feel your pain. :-) However, we are going to simply have to compromise in
some areas -- and one of these is the forums. Moving to a foundation like
Apache means compromising on some points and compromising means sometimes
not getting what you would ideally want. So far, we have everything plus
more in many areas. Apache has been immensely supportive and the help we've
been given has been far more than I had expected. So, now it's our turn to
compromise -- no forums.

AW: Ending the @netbeans.org mailing lists.

2017-11-27 Thread Christian Lenz
I read the text and IMHO to not have a Forum is in my perspective not an 
Option. As you can see the Forum is still active, for the users you ask 
questions. Not everyone will join the Mailing lists. If there is no replacement 
in Apache, is there a Problem to move the Forum over to Apache too?

We'll send it to all NetBeans.org mailing lists, to the NetBeans forum,

I think we should keep the discussion re bug tracker separate from the

Hi,

Users seem to be confused about where to report issues.

Maybe it's a good idea to add a link to the new JIRA issue system too.

Cheers,

Hi all,

We should, at some stage, put an end to the various netbeans.org mailing
lists, e.g., nbus...@netbeans.org and the dozen or so other netbeans.org
mailing lists and ensure that everyone asks questions about NetBeans on the
Apache NetBeans mailing lists instead. Jiri Kovalsky and I, who have
managed the NetBeans.org mailing lists over the years, propose we send the
following to ALL the netbeans.org mailing lists at the beginning of next

Subject for the mail: “January 1st, 2018: End of @netbeans.org Mailing

Text:

“If you’ve been following Oracle's Apache NetBeans donation process,
you’ll be aware that a large part of NetBeans is in Apache Git already. You
should also be aware that mailing lists are available at Apache for
purposes of discussing the development and usage of Apache NetBeans.

By means of this e-mail, we’re letting you know that as of January 1st,
2018, the @netbeans.org mailing lists will be deleted (they are archived
at netbeans.markmail.org), all references to @netbeans.org will, where
possible, be replaced with references to Apache NetBeans mailing lists, and
everyone will need to manually move to the Apache NetBeans @dev (
dev@netbeans.incubator.apache.org) and Apache NetBeans @user (
us...@netbeans.incubator.apache.org) mailing lists.




Anyone asking questions about the usage of NetBeans, whether for Java,
JavaScript, C/C++, or any other language or technology, as well as those
using the NetBeans APIs for developing modules and applications, will use
the Apache NetBeans @user mailing list. If and when it turns out that too
many developers of one category dominate the @user mailing list, a separate
Apache NetBeans mailing list will be created for them. The Apache NetBeans
@dev mailing list is specifically for those committed to working on the
development of Apache NetBeans itself, as well as those committed to
promoting and documenting it, via events and tutorials, etc.

Note that we will be discontinuing the web forums, i.e.,
forums.netbeans.org, and that in Apache there is no replacement for that
— Apache projects work with mailing lists only.

Hoping to see you all on the Apache NetBeans mailing lists, you’re
encouraged to move there as soon as possible and to not write to the @
netbeans.org mailing lists anymore.

Kind regards,

Geertjan & Jirka




Feedback/comments welcome. We'd like to send the above to all the @

IMHO it would be better to Keep the Mailing list until everyone or at least we, 
migrated all or most of the tickets from bugzilla to JIRA, because the users 
from the Mailing lists, gets notifications for changes in the tickets.

Yup. In the meantime, and in addition, this is also listed here:

IMO all that information on mailing lists should be under
http://netbeans.apache.org/ at a permanent URL.

See http://sling.apache.org/project-information.html#mailing-lists for
an example, though there's room for improvement there, like what Ate
mentions about using lists.a.o for browsing.

Please add wording that users migrating to the users@ or dev@ list 
should *subscribe* to those lists by sending an empty email to

users-subscr...@netbeans.apache.org or dev-subscr...@netbeans.apache.org

Maybe also helpful to remark that you can anonymously browse the mail
archives via https://lists.apache.org/list.html?us...@netbeans.apache.org
and https://lists.apache.org/list.html?d...@netbeans.apache.org

All this typically is/should be documented already on the website, but
as we don't have any real (ASF) content yet at netbeans.apache.org new
users easily will get lost.

I think the website really needs to get priority attention, also because
otherwise there is no place to communicate and provide the download
links for the current HTML/Java API and upcoming platform releases...
