Mailinglists

Mailinglists for projects

netlabs.org provides some mailinglists for its projects. Usualy the name is projectname-dev and projectname-user. As you can imagine the -dev list is ment for developers and the -user list for users of the project itself. Please respect that separation and do not post user questions in the developer list!

• To subscribe, e-mail: <listname>-subscribe@netlabs.org
• To unsubscribe, e-mail: <listname>-unsubscribe@netlabs.org
• For additional commands, e-mail: <listname>-help@netlabs.org

We also provide digest lists:

• To subscribe to the digest, e-mail: <listname>-digest-subscribe@netlabs.org
• To unsubscribe from the digest, e-mail: <listname>-digest-unsubscribe@netlabs.org

To post messages to the list, e-mail: <listname>@netlabs.org
Where <listname> is for example xworkplace-dev.

gmane.org: Newsgroup interface & web archive

To make sure that everyone can access the mailinglists easily we also provide a newsgroup interface at http://gmane.org where you can read and post messages to the lists.
gmane.org is an excellent service that provides a newsgroup interface for subscribed mailinglists. Also it acts as an archive for the list and they provide a very simple to use webinterface where you can also post messages if you wish.

All mailinglists at netlabs.org are subscribed in our own netlabs hierarchy: gmane.org.netlabs

You can either read them with your prefered newsreader or via the web interface. The newsserver is news://news.gmane.org

You can also post to the lists without a subscription to the list itself! The first time you post a message via news you will get a confirmation email so it is necessary that you provide a valid email address in your news settings. Once you confirmed that email you will be able to post messages to the list wihtout a real subscription to the mailinglist itself. Note that you have to provide a real email address in your newsreader for sure, otherwise it will not work.

Enjoy!
