As long as you make sure that the questions are more obvious from the docs afterwards, don't apologize :-) > *) IP clearance checklist - I need to make a copy of that in SVN here, > /incubator/site-author/ip-clearance.

I think this is quite a tricky thing to do.

Same question on dependencies as above. No particular dependencies. Provide the subscriber list as a file with email addresses seperated by newlines and add it to the jira issue, and its easy for the apmail people to add all those people in one swoop. Once that is done you can send an email to the new mailing list and all those people will know they're on a new list. Handling external mailing list archives (eg marc, mail-archives, gmane) might be a little work and depends on how those archives are set up to interact with the ASF stuff; I think some of them have 'special' support. > Anything else? The first step before doing any of the above is to get an incubation status file filled out and up on http://incubator.apache.org/projects/index.html Eg, start off with https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/site-author/projects/incubation-status-template.xml cheers, Leo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
