A while ago I arranged for the ranger mailing lists to be replicated to the news server on gmane.org . The objective was to make it easier for new joiners (users or contributors) to the project, or casual observers, to be easily get an idea of the vibrancy of the project and reduce any barriers to getting engaged.

These lists remain available on the NNTP server as

news://news.gmane.org:119/gmane.comp.apache.incubator.ranger.scm
news://news.gmane.org:119/gmane.comp.apache.incubator.ranger.devel
news://news.gmane.org:119/gmane.comp.apache.incubator.ranger.user

I think it could be useful if we would add these links to the "mailing list" page at http://ranger.apache.org/mail-lists.html albeit with the caveat that
 * these are not officialyy supported by apache
 * any issues should be directed at gmane.org

gmane did have a glitch for a few months, but has been back running for a while now albeit with reduced capabilities. I personally still believe it can offer a valuable aid - free from constraints of some email systems & formats!



Thanks
Nigel.
