We basically haven't been using SourceForge for anything but the
linuxsh-dev mailing list for a couple of years now, and we've already had
to make it subscribers only simply due to the sheer volume of spam that
comes in on a daily basis. This has been a constant source of irritation.
David Miller has graciously set up a shiny new lin...@vg...
list for us to move to, which will also enable us to open it back up for
cross-posting with linux-kernel, which was previously something that
wasn't terribly effective (or encouraged).
vger subscription etiquette bars a blind import of the existing subscribe
list, so everyone will have to manually resubscribe. Information on that
for those not familiar with majordomo is available here:
http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
With this we can finally abandon SourceForge completely, and kill off a
spam-ridden mailing list that's otherwise served us well for the better
part of the last 8 years!
