I thought yosh was the only one with access to the server. With a contact person at XCF the easiest is of course to keep our lists there.

It is great to see the gimp-developer list up and running again, but it has had two rather long downtimes recently and it is not unreasonable to assume that these problems will continue. What do people think about asking GNOME to host the list [1]? Personally I would be fine with that. as long as the file extension is XCF, the project should use berkeley's generosity, i think... Seriously, a real reason to migrate to some other list/medium list would be better support for the spurious UI discussions: feels somewhat anachronistic to discuss graphical issues using an ASCII mailing list. greetings, yahvuu ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I don't quite understand why we don't pull the problem at its roots and look for a new admin for the GIMP server. With a new admin we can buy or rent a server and put an end to all those problems. Money is not a problem as we have more than enough money to spend on this. We need someone with serious sysadmin experience who is willing to become responsible for gimp.org. By moving the lists to GNOME we don't solve our issues, we just make it even harder to maintain them.
