(@Mark: do you have script to "clone" a list with a new name?)
I don't currently, but it seems like a good idea, I'll see what I can
come up with.
OK, there now is one at <http://www.msapiro.net/scripts/clone_list>
(mirrored at <http://fog.ccsf.edu/~msapiro/scripts/clone_list>)
Here's the command help:
usage: clone_list [-h] [-r REAL_NAME] [-o OWNER] [-p PASSWORD]
[-s SUBJECT_PREFIX] [-m]
old_list new_list
And, as we know, since no program is finished until the programmer dies,
I have added an additional option to copy the archives as well.
I also added more to the help description to indicate the script needs
to be installed in Mailman's bin/ directory and that there are still
issues in copied archives due to links still pointing to the old list.
I considered adding a --remove option to remove the old list after
cloning to make it a 'rename' process, but decided against that both
because of the archive issues in the new list and because one can always
easily remove the old list with bin/rmlist anyway.
Thanks for that! We could've used that often in the past and will be able
to do so from now on :-)
