Looking at that page now I find that the netbsd-announce link is missing a path part in the href url. netbsd-announce While it appears from the other two working links next to it that the intent was that it should be this. netbsd-announce Could some kind soul with wiki change access priviledges double check my poor typing transcription here and then correct that link? Thanks! :-) Bob
Re: Recent web page changes
As I recall there used to be a link to the mailing lists on the main web page under the Support category along with the ones that are still listed on the new web page. Finding the link to “Release engineering” used to be a treasure hunt, but now it’s much easier with the link under Developers on the new main web page. -bob On Jul 31, 2020, at 7:18 AM, Greg Troxel wrote: > Clay Daniels writes: > >> No one seems to have this fixed yet as far as I can see.

Re: Recent web page changes
No one seems to have this fixed yet as far as I can see. However, majordomo still works. I just sent an email to majord...@netbsd.org with the word "lists" in the body of the mail, and it returned a list of mailing lists and other helpful info. I like the new look of the website, but we do need to make it a little easier for folks not familiar with NetBSD to join a list. Maybe we are trying to phase out the lists in favor of the forums?
