In order to create the list on Gmane, I'm forwarding this message.
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: mediawiki-distributors added to Gmane Date: Sat, 29 Sep 2012 11:15:08 +0200 Organization: Mail To News -- http://gmane.org/ To: mediawiki-distributors-admin@lists.wikimedia.org, mediawiki-distributors-admin@lists.wikimedia.org
We have received a request for adding the mediawiki-distributors@lists.wikimedia.org mailing list to the Gmane mail-to-news gateway/archive. A subscription request message has been sent. If this is contrary to your wishes, please send a mail to admin@gmane.org saying so, and the list will be removed from Gmane.
Gmane is a mail-to-news portal that never expires its messages. It therefore also functions as a mailing list archive. It's a bi-directional gateway, but Gmane verifies that its users' email addresses are valid before passing the messages through the news-to-mail gateway. (Groups can also be made "read-only", which means that Gmane won't forward any messages at all to the mailing list.)
Gmane can encrypt addresses to make address harvesting difficult, and heeds X-No-Archive and related headers.
If you wish to import older archives into Gmane, send a message to the Gmane administrators with the URL of a Unix mbox archive of the mailing list.
In partnership with The Mail Archive, messages will be archived on that service as well. This provides redundancy across two archival services.
The following parameters are set for this mailing list:
* Newsgroup name: gmane.org.wikimedia.mediawiki.distributors * Mailing list address: mediawiki-distributors@lists.wikimedia.org * The gateway is bi-directional * Address encryption is off * Spam detection is on * The list is described as: "Discussion problems you come across packaging MediaWiki" * News URL: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.mediawiki.distributors * Web URL: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.mediawiki.distributors
This newsgroup will be created when the first message from the mailing list arrives.
