Actually I disabled this for both list, as I don't think we want to
constantly monitor who's joining the list. Anyone who wants to subscribe
can do so.

Sooooo. We have two lists set up (lm-sensors and lm-sensors commit).
I've changed some options and think things are now fine. Rudolf Marek
and I made some tests on lm-sensors and it seems to work just fine. I
think we are ready to move on.

I set the lm-sensors list so that non-members can post. I set the
lm-sensors-commit list so that only members can post, except for the CVS
robot.

Philip, checklist:

1* Copy and paste the subscriber list from the old list to the new one.
You can omit Rudolf and me, as we're already there.

2* Make sure that the ticket system will advertise the new list instead
of the old one.

3* Block the old list, make it send a message pointing the users to
http://www.lm-sensors.nu/, where relevant information will be available
(soon).

4* Kill the lm78@ address.

5* Edit the CVS trigger that posted commit information to the old list,
so that it now posts them to the new lm-sensors-commit list.

Axel, checklist:

1* Blast the test messages from the lm-sensors archive.

Me, checklist:

1* Search and replace all the references to the old list in i2c,
lm_sensors2, website, linux.

Let's go :)

OK. There are two switches to turn off, subscription approval (the
mail above) and subscription notification.

Why, shouldn't only the CVS robot be able to post? How about setting
replies to the discussion list? That's what most projects do, e.g. the
-commits list is a read-only list and any discussion started from there
is relayed to a -devel list.

OK, there is also:

2* import old archives

I have all archives until yesterday.

Did both on both list, so that should be OK.

Mmm yes that's a possibility. My concern wass that people suscribed to
lm-sensors but not lm-sensors-commit would then lack the original post
for that thread - but maybe that's better that not seeing the thread at
all.

I've changed the lm-sensors-commit to work like that (or so I hope).

Correct. And I guess you can pick the few additional ones from your own
mbox? Not a big problem if a few posts are missing anyway.

Oh, while we're at it. The old archive has a whole lot of posts named
"Notification d'??tat de la distribution" (with "Undeliverable:" 0 or
more times in front). These are crap. Could you possibly delete them
before you push the old archive into Mailman? They're all grouped
together.

Thanks,

That's not an option, I want them all ;)

I thought we'll temporarily close this list, have a final sync with
Andrew's archives and then start on the new list. Is that acceptable?

OK, I'll check on that.

(If we close the list, it will hardly be "temporarily".)

If Philip, Andrew and you can make it all happen in a short period of
time, it's fine with me. But if this sounds too unprobable that you'll
be able to synchronize, then I'd better miss a few posts in the archive
than have no list for a long period of time.

Of course it's all down to what a "short period of time" is. In fact I
don't know, so I'll let the three of you decide together ;)
