If we move to the new domain, will we retain the searchable archive of mail to yt-dev and yt-users that has been built up over the last 5 years?  If so, I'm in favor of this.

Hi all,

Because of convenience at the time, back in 2007 the mailing lists were set up on spacepope.org.  I'd like to propose we migrate them to be on yt-project.org.

To do this, I will coordinate with our ISP (dreamhost) to:

 1) Move the lists to lists.yt-project.org


 2) Set up email aliases for the old addresses

 3) Set up web redirects for the old web addresses for archives

 4) Encourage people to write to the new list addresses

(Anything else need to happen?)

Will we be running our own mailman service somewhere?  I'd like to find a way to avoid downtime like we saw today.


That wasn't something I had considered, no.

While we're talking about it, maybe we should look into discourse instead of mailman.


 

In perpetuity we'll keep the old URLs available, which probably means keeping that domain around.

PS You probably won't see this for a while, since our mailing lists are lagging right now.  I've filed a ticket about that.
