Actually, I had already figured out how to modify the list descriptions, but I was hoping that the descriptions for the many lists could all appear on <https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=cvs> so that users do not have to click through to each list to view each individual list description. I think the current click-through-for-description setup encourages users to guess which list does what. It is not even necessarily obvious that list descriptions will appear when the list names are clicked from that page.

We are currently moderating about one email a day to the -unavailable- commit email list that should be directed to info-cvs@nongnu.org, and I think list descriptions on <https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=cvs> would help avoid this issue.

Hi.

The Mailman integration is not perfect yet. I ackowledge this would be good to merge the changes from the Savannah interface and from Mailman's. Currently you need to use https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/admin/?change_status=1&group=cvs to edit the descriptions there as well.

Or expect people to, as I did myself yesterday for info-cvs, have a look at the Mailman listinfo page. But given that -unavailable- itself receives non-Savannah-related CVS requests, I guess we can forget about it ;)
