I'm guessing that he's referring to the attendees of a GLAM meeting that was held in Paris a few months ago and is comprehensively documented on Meta: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2015_European_GLAMwiki_Coordinators_meeting Yesterday, I asked the ~15 attendees of that meeting a followup question about my own work, and called them the "paris group" in that email as a shorthand. As far as I know, that's the only time the phrase has been used in a GLAM-specific context.

Hello Base
Guessing from your first email, the "Paris group" you mention may be this mailing list hosted by Wikimédia France http://lists.wikimedia.fr/info/paris, which allows people living in Paris discuss about their local IRL actions (like visiting museums).
This list is not a generic mailing-list, like lists hosted by WMF.
Best, Benoît

Your comment does not cover the fact that not all lists are hosted by lists.wikimedia.org.
E.g. cultural partnership is here:
https://intern.wikimedia.ch/lists/listinfo/cultural-partners
Some other chapters also host lists and there're googlegroups to consider. That's a one thing why a mere server listing of lists does not suffice. Another is that an automatical list listing isn't where you can write rules, membership procedure/criteria and other stuff needed for transparency. Well not just transparency issue but also of need to concentrate data in one place is to be considered. --Base

The canonical home for the list of lists is https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo. While it is possible to have a list hidden from there, it would be pretty unusual for a GLAM list, I think.

Hi guys.
Just how many GLAM lists do we have?
Not counting regional ones, I know of GLAM, Cultural-Partners, Libraries, got to know about existence of some the "paris group" (not sure if it's even a mailing list technically, but in case it's not then it's weird even more). Perhaps there are some (or is it many?) others.
Should they not be all listed in one place, e.g. on https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Mailing_lists with clear data about who manages them, what are their scope, rules and how you might joint them?
Just having many is already confusing but when you can't even get a list of all of them it's confusing even more.
I'm sorry if some of the lists I listed were intended as cabalish and not to be disclosed to others. I don't think cabalish lists are a good way to collaborate for wikimedians.
Yours sincerely, Base
