mailing.html

[Amir Karger]

OK, I've re-re-written mailing.html to show the new mailing lists (again). I
also included a note that we plan to change lyx-users soon. If a couple
people could proofread it for spelling et al., that would be nice. Then
asger can post it.

I hope you like my formatting choices. If not, I could probably change them.
I tried to keep the page short but clear.

Mailing Lists There are three different mailing lists related to LyX: The Announcement list. Very low volume. (archive) The User's list. Medium volume. (archive) The Developer's list. High volume. (archive) They each serve a different purpose. You can check the archives to get a feeling for which might be relevant to you. The developer's list also features a digest, which will have the same volume as the developer's list, of course, but lower frequency. How the mailing lists work All of the mailing lists except for the user's mailing list use the same simple software. (We're hoping to change the lyx-users lists soon, too). For a hypothetical lyx-foo mailing list, you would send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to contribute, i.e., to send a message to everyone on the mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] to unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a help message, which will tell you how to do things like get an index of messages, retrieve one or more messages, or contact the (human) list owner Note: the address is the important thing; the subject and body of the message can be completely empty! Announcement list This mailing list is indended for announcements concerning LyX, in particular new stable versions. Send mail (can be empty) to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] to unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a help message The only person allowed to post to this list is me, [EMAIL PROTECTED], so if you have something really important that the rest of the LyX community needs to know, send me a message that I can forward. The list is archived here. User's list Use this list if you have questions on how to get LyX working, how to use LyX and other question related to usage. To subscribe, you simply have to write a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the single word 'subscribe' in the subject line. To contribute to the mailing list, mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. The list is archived here and here. Developer's list This list is intended only for the discussion of subjects relevant to the implementation, planning, hacking and improvement of LyX. This means that bug reports should go here, but please read Help->Known bugs inside LyX before submitting any. To contribute to the mailing list, mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For other mailing list functions, send mail (can be empty) to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] to unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a help message The list is archived at a new archive. and an old archive Developer's list digest Because the developer's list has such high volume, a digest has been set up. The digest is sent out to subscribers with (usually) 30 messages in it. It begins with a "table of contents" of the messages grouped by subject. Send mail (can be empty) to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] to unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a help message Of course, you can't post directly to this list, and it isn't archived.
