[DPP-Devel] Move of the mailing list "dpp-devel" to the Google Group "saros-devel"

[Tobias B. <tob...@fu...>]

Hi all,

after a discussion with Franz, we decided to leave the old SourceForge
mailing list behind, as its technical administration grew more and more
cumbersome over the years.

We are moving this list to Google Groups. The new group is named
"saros-devel" and is reachable through
"https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/saros-devel".

There are two options for subscribing to the new mailing list:

1.) With a googlemail account:
If you are logged in with a googlemail account, you can use
"http://groups.google.com/group/saros-devel/boxsubscribe" or go to
"https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/saros-devel" and use the blue
"Join group" button next to the group name.
Through "My settings -> Membership and email settings", you can manage
your username, email address used for the subscription and the email
delivery preference (daily summaries, combined updates or updates for
each message).

2.) Without a googlemail account:
You can subscribe to the list via the web interface by going to
"http://groups.google.com/group/saros-devel/boxsubscribe" and entering
the email address you want to join with or via email by sending an email
to "sar...@go..." (the subject or content of
the mail does not matter). Either of those should result in an automated
mail to the given address which contains a link to complete the joining
process.
This method does *NOT* allow you to change your settings.
This means you will not be able to set a username. Instead, everything
before the '@' in your address will be used ("fo...@st..." will
result in the username "foo.bar").
Furthermore, you will not be able to change your subscription options,
meaning that it is not possible to enable daily summaries or combined
updates for the list.

Best regards,
Tobias
