Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Creating mailing list for FOSS4G 2018

2018-05-22 Thread Msilikale Msilanga
Dear Jody,

I have created the ticket. I hope this is resolved soon.

I think we need the mailing list for each event in order to differentiate the 
discussions between the participants. If its the discussion which has 
originated from FOSS4G2018 then its easy. But, if only email is used, then its 
a mixture of all the osgeo even people who did not want to follow the 
discussion from the a certain event/year.

Best,

Msilikale
