Hi!

Is this transfer of lkml to vger.kernel.org a final thing, or is it just temporary till rutgers is up again?

Also, are there any plans of moving the list to majordomo2? There are certain features of majordomo2 that makes it easier to live with a list. I mean "set linux-kernel nomail" kinda thing.

It is permanent.

Oh, is MD2 officially out ?

Pray tell, how 'nomail' differs from 'unsubscribe' ?

I mean in open list where just anybody can post independent of their being list subscribers, or not.

Digest services anywhere and Re: LKML on Majordomo2 ?

In reply to Sandip Bhattacharya

Just another question ...

The LKML FAQ does not point out any site providing decent digest services ... (by decent I mean it would be easier to split up the digest using formail) The yahoogroups/egroups archive has this horrible way of digesting mails ... Any pointers would be welcome ...

I checked the archives. There seems to a long discussion last year on making a move to either Majordomo2 or Mailman. Mailman has improved a lot over all this time. Is it still worth a go?

Mailman has the big disadvantage that it isn't able to do spam filtering based on the message content.

Personally I'm looking at converting NL.linux.org to Listar (soon to be renamed to encartis), see http://www.listar.org/

Thats because you are supposed to use it in conjunction with a sensible mail system, such as exim. Tools for jobs. Exim can run arbitary programs to scan incoming mail.
