Hi Manuel,That's why I'm asking if I'm allowed to just register a project at savannah to get a high quality mailing list? It's never come up before. It hasn't been discussed explicitly among the current savannah admins, but I think the answer is no, sorry. The purpose of savannah is ultimately to promote free software, per the various items on https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php. When the software is hosted somewhere else, it makes little sense for savannah to just provide mailing lists, as far as I can see. Best regards, Karl
We've done this in the past for GNU projects, as to provide an infrastructure for mailing list management. Aside from that, I agree, if a project is hosted elsewhere, using Savannah for mailing lists makes little sense.
