Mailing Lists

Public / private

As a general guideline we use public lists as much as possible (searchable archives, transparency...). Private lists are provided for users who wish to communicate about confidential matters, or when the Savannah Hackers need a private discussion (immediate security issue).

Carbon copy

Try to keep the carbon-copy list intact when you reply to e-mails, unless you think this is needed (in which case, explain briefly why and who you added/removed from Cc: list) :)

Spam and moderation

Users do not receive notification when their message is being held, so as to prevent "backscatter" spam. All non-spam posts are accepted - there is no "moderation".

Other information

Check https://savannah.gnu.org/mail/?group=administration for more information.

ToDo: Check /com/mailer/aliases and clean-up savannah-related stuff, including savannah-compromise and savannah-daily-reports

ToDo: deal with savannah-compromise, an alias of sv-root. We could move it to sv-ha-priv, after checking the archive at fencepost.

Aliases

root, postmaster, hostmaster, admin, and webmaster for both savannah.gnu.org and savannah.nongnu.org point to savannah-hackers-private.

Useful for, eg. CAcert?.org that uses those adresses to reach a domain owner.

IRC

#savannah on irc.oftc.net is a real-time medium meant to synchronize each other when working at the same time.

ChangeLog?

Savannah's ChangeLog? is monitored by diffmon and sent to savannah-hackers-private The one at lists.gnu.org isn't.

Old stuff

savannah-root was once used as an alias for root@sv, hosted private discussions, and received savannah-compromise. List is now closed.
