Subscribe to receive calls for action at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-announce -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Recycling wikitech-announce for tech contributors Date: Sat, 13 Apr 2013 12:23:21 -0700 From: Quim Gil <q...@wikimedia.org> Organization: Wikimedia Foundation To: Wikimedia developers <wikitec...@lists.wikimedia.org> Hi, We were missing a way to notify tech contributors and volunteers about new activities, and after some discussion [1] we have decided to recycle the unused https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-announce Subscribers will receive CALLS FOR ACTION ONLY e.g. for activities like the ones listed at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Calendar. No announcements of new releases, features removed, etc. We have channels already for that. We will sync the announcements at wikitech-announce with with wikitech-l and wikitech-ambassadors. While this is not a big deal for current contributors following already wikitech-l and a number of wiki pages etc, it will help potential volunteers willing to get involved and know about opportunities to contribute.
