[Soc-coordination] Bug#798199: New list: debian-outreach at lists.debian.org

[Nicolas Dandrimont]

Package: lists.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Hi all,

I would like to request the creation of a new list,
debian-outreach at lists.debian.org.

Name:
     debian-outreach

Short description:
     Public discussion of the Outreach Team's activities

Long description:
     Discussion of Debian's participation in internship-like programs,
     such as Outreachy, Google Summer of Code, ...

     Program administrators and members of the Outreach Team will send
     announcements regarding Debian's participation to this
     mailing-list. Debian interns will send periodic reports of their
     work to this mailing-list.

Rationale:
     The current mailing-list, soc-coordination on alioth, has become a
     burden as its name is GSoC-specific and, sadly, it is riddled with
     spam, which often makes gmail users get unsubscribed automatically
     after bounces.

     Now that the Outreach Team has been permanently delegated as such,
     and as we are between programs, now would be a good time to migrate
     to a proper, non-program-specific mailing-list on official Debian
     infrastructure.

Category:
     I'm torn between Developers and Misc Debian, with a slight
     preference for the latter.

Subscription policy:
     open

Post policy:
     open

Web archive:
     yes

I'd like to bootstrap the list with the subscribers and archives from
soc-coordination (although after a quick glance it doesn't seem possible
to get those archives without admin intervention), please let me know
how to provide them to you once the list is created!

Thanks in advance,

Nicolas for the Outreach Team.
