The following naming conventions have been established for posts to the
CentOS-announce mailing list. The purpose is to ensure uniformity
across products, architectures, releases etc. This will allow easier
and simpler automated CESA (CentOS Errata and Security Advisory)
processing by end users.

As you will know from recent posts, CentOS is separating from cAos to
become an independent project. As part of that change we are implementing
new mailing lists.
This new mailing list is now known as centos-devel(a)centos.org and you have
been subscribed to it if you were subscribed to centos-devel(a)caosity.org.
Due to the large number of people subscribed it has not been possible to
retain options etc across to the new list, so if you only want to
receive digests or need to change any other options then you will need to
login to change them.
You can find out the password assigned to you by having it emailled to
you from :-
http://lists.centos.org/mailman/options/centos-devel
The archive of posts has been transferred across to the new list manager,
and posts to the old address will make it to the new list.
Regards
Lance
