Hi all!

Our IServ system used for mail and mailing lists will be down for maintenance on

     TUESDAY, 6TH DECEMBER 2022
     15:00 ~ 17:00 UTC

During this time, you won't be able to send or receive any mails using your @reactos.org address. Other servers sending mail to your @reactos.org address will usually try again after the maintenance.


This time, the mailing lists may be down for a few more hours though.
Our currently used Mailman 2 mailing list software is no longer supported, and we need to upgrade it to Mailman 3. However, Mailman 3 has been rewritten from scratch, so the upgrade won't be straightforward. For instance, Mailman 3 comes with a new web interface with new URLs, breaking all existing URLs to mailing list posts. The best we can do to keep URLs intact is keeping them in their current state forever, with a link to the new archives for new posts (like the Python Project did for https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/). This is probably better than closing mailing lists altogether (like GNOME did: https://www.theregister.com/2022/10/27/the_gnome_project_is_closing/).

Not that we've been using ros-dev much lately. But it's still the primary spot to reach out to all developers. And I assume even more people are relying on ros-bugs and ros-diffs for their work. Please speak up if you're still using them.


Other services won't be affected by this migration. In particular, all means of communication through Mattermost and the website/forums will stay live.


Best regards,

Colin Finck
