I'd like to get board approval (thread here) about renaming the lists like this :
<snip>
Final recap for the public lists to be imported and renamed at the same time :
arm-dev@centos.org => arm-dev@lists.centos.org centos@centos.org => discuss@lists.centos.org (proposed by Amy) centos-devel@centos.org => devel@lists.centos.org centos-announce@centos.org => announce@lists.centos.org centos-automotive-sig@centos.org => automotive-sig@lists.centos.org centos-{cz,de,es,fr,nl,pt-br,zh}@centos.org => discuss-{cz,de,es,fr,nl,pt-br,zh}@lists.centos.org ci-users@centos.org => ci-users@lists.centos.org centos-gsoc: => gsoc@lists.centos.org centos-mirror@centos.org => mirror@lists.centos.org centos-mirror-announce@centos.org => mirror-announce@lists.centos.org centos-newsletter@centos.org => newsletter@lists.centos.org centos-promo@centos.org => promo@lists.centos.org centos-virt@centos.org => virt@lists.centos.org
I'll write a wrapper script to automate the mailman2 => mailman3 import (host itself will be configured by new ansible mailman3 role, already tested) and I'll announce the day when we'll switch to new platform
Looks good!
Remark : If we rename we have to inform all users on all lists that they'll have to modify eventually their filters, if they filter based on list but not subject. Worth knowing that renaming a list modifies the email address but the list settings are still the same, so even if centos-devel@centos.org is imported as new list devel@lists.centos.org, the subject prefix (as imported by mailman2 import21 script) keeps it intact, so [CentOS-devel]
Yes, though we could drop the subject prefix too.
It seems like it'd be worth having a blog post or something to announce the changes coming with the transition.
