Re: [RDA-L] About the coming transfer of RDA-L

[Heidrun Wiesenmüller]

Jamie,

Two more questions about the forthcoming transfer of RDA-L:

1. Will the URLs for mails in the present archive still be working?

For example, will 
http://www.mail-archive.com/rda-l@listserv.lac-bac.gc.ca/msg11767.html
still retrieve your announcement of 18 December? I've sometimes included 
such links in discussions with German colleagues or in our wiki, and it 
would be rather inconvenient if these links wouldn't work any longer.


2. Do I understand correctly that the new archive will only be open to 
subscribers?


I know that some people cannot find the time to follow all of our 
discussion and therefore do not want to subscribe, but are happy to read 
up selected threads in the archive.

This post follows up on the announcement last week that hosting of the 
RDA-L list will transfer from Library Archives Canada to the American 
Library Association (ALA). Below you will find the important 
information needed to navigate the transfer period.


·The transfer will occur on December 27^th .

·On that date the email address for RDA-L  will change to 
rd...@ala.org mailto:rd...@ala.org. This means beginning on Dec. 
27^th subscribers should send all RDA-L posts to that address.


·Beginning on Dec. 27^th , replies to discussion threads that started 
on the RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA 
mailto:RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA address should be redirected to 
rd...@ala.org mailto:rd...@ala.org.


·Current subscriptions to RDA-L will be automatically transferred to 
the ALA hosting service.


·Subscribers will be able to manage their subscriptions and access the 
full archive of RDA-L posts (from 2005 to the present) at 
http://lists.ala.org/sympa/info/rda-l. Subscribers should use the 
first login button when attempting to access subscription settings 
or the RDA-L archive for the first time. By clicking the first login 
button the subscriber will be able to create a password. Your email 
and password will serve as your login at lists.ala.org.


Next week I will supply more instructions on using ALA lists. Please 
feel free to contact me at jhenne...@ala.org 
mailto:jhenne...@ala.org with any questions or concerns about this 
translation.

Just a clarification on one statement in your message:

There are at least two ways to parse this one. Is it:
1. Replies to threads that originated from the old address 'should be 
redirected' [manually by the reply-er] to the new address [meaning that we have 
to pay attention to avoid having messages rejected]
2. Replies to threads that originated from the old address 'should be 
redirected' [automatically by the system] to the new address [meaning we can 
stop worrying and just let those replies fly]
