Hi folks - I figured you might want to know about this small Mastodon conversation.
Thanks for letting us know, Sumana! I am not on Mastodon, so probably won't be able to reply there.
Seems like the world of folks who are currently using Mailman 2 lists includes people who need:
- materials to help their sysadmins understand how and why to upgrade to 3
We do have migration docs for system admins: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/migration.html
Although, the current migration involves running a command for all the lists one-by-one and then import the Archives separately. The process could be made a bit better IMO, but I haven't had time to prioritize the effort recently. Maybe I should pick up my WIP MR again1.
- major hosting companies like Dreamhost to start offering Mailman 3, and an easy upgrade path
I am happy to help any hosting companies to migrate their Mailman 2 users off to Mailman 3. I haven't had any previous conversations, but was wondering if there are any representatives on this list to start off a conversation perhaps?
The process can be fairly easily automated I think.
