Hi all,
Just to check: I've been assuming of late that everyone that's interested in reading announcements (including things like chapter reports, committee reports and signpost issues) is subscribed to the wikimediaannounce-l mailing list - is that a valid assumption, or should reports continue to be sent to this list?
I'm not subscribed to the announcements list. The idea was that everything that goes to the announcements list would also go here (as would replies to anything on the announcements list). That was supposed to be automatic, but I think there were some problems getting it to work. Could someone have another go? There must be some way to do it... (if you can't just subscribe one list to the other, how about creating a new email address that just forwards everything to foundation-l and subscribing that to the announcements list?)
Ral315 and I spent some time figuring out how, but now it seems to work: Messages from WikimediaAnnounce-l are being forwarded to Foundation-l again.
And Geoff had the (unwitting) honor of re-inaugurating the gateway ;) http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2011-September/068171.html
It might just be me, but I think the forwarding only works if one is subscribed to the foundation-l list with the e-mail address he uses for the wikimediaannounce-l. (At least I got a notice that the letter I sent to WA-l just now was rejected due to spam.)
Thanks for the heads-up, we'll look into it - could you forward me the rejection notice offlist? (For other readers: We are talking about rejection by Foundation-l. The WikimediaAnnounce-l copy of the letter went through just fine: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimediaannounce-l/2011-September/0002... )
