    we switched completely to:

    - https://forum.dbpedia.org
    - Slack https://dbpedia-slack.herokuapp.com/

    and http://blog.dbpedia.org for announcements.

That's too bad. Why abandon such a nice lingua franca like email?

Email is not the problem, but DBpedia got too big. We started out with a simple extraction of Wikipedia (which is now just the Generic group: https://databus.dbpedia.org/dbpedia/generic), then came the mappings, Spotlight, the ontology, the services, community add ons and links, more tools. DBpedia Live, Fusion.

So you could consider us the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) for data. ASF have a much easier job, I talked to them. They have way more projects: https://www.apache.org/index.html#projects-list but each of them is independent and has their own mailing list, which is appropriate, i.e. one concern per list.

All DBpedia things are connected like Spotlight to the Ontology. Or https://databus.dbpedia.org/propan/lhd/linked-hypernyms uses https://databus.dbpedia.org/dbpedia/text/long-abstracts . So we need global spaces where you can link and manage concerns together.

We moved the datasets from a language-centric to a extraction-centric view, so we can link the data docu to the code better and also connect to the forum:

https://databus.dbpedia.org/dbpedia/generic/labels

This will go more crazy, when we move data debugging on S,P level: http://global.dbpedia.org/?s=https%3A%2F%2Fglobal.dbpedia.org%2Fid%2FWzpc&p=http%3A%2F%2Fdbpedia.org%2Fontology%2FmeltingPoint&src=general


In the future, you will need only the Databus/Forum account, a github  and a slack account to join any communication channel.

All that said, we will still post major updates here, but the up-to-date music plays in the forum, slack and on the bus.
