Wouldn't something like m...@packages.qa.debian.org work for us? We probably
won't even need a list...


I'm fine with this as well.  Will somebody mind to upload the package
with this maintainer address?

Well, the commits list is something I certainly wouldn't miss, in as far 
as the developers list is concerned, we also have two upstream lists 
(users / developers), and the latter basically isn't very much used at 
all, so I wouldn't mind Debian-related traffic there, especially 
considering the amount of such traffic.


I have no clue what's mc@packages... is, so I can't tell whether this will 
serve the purpose or not.

Hi Andreas,

I didn't react, because I'm not a DD, and you need to be a DD to request 
migration to the new service. Of course, I have no objections against 
migrating the list, but please DDs, take this into your own hands.

Hi every one,
I'm OK to migrate the list to the new alioth system.
Thank you Andreas.
cheers

Bug#899775: mc: Invalid maintainer address pkg-mc-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org

[Christoph Biedl]

Package: src:mc
Version: 3:4.8.20-1
Severity: serious
User: ad...@alioth-lists.debian.net
Usertag: alioth-lists-maintainer

Dear uploader of mc,

as you've probably heard, Debian's alioth services are shutting down.
This affects your package mc since the list address
pkg-mc-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org used in the Maintainer: field was
not transferred to the alioth-lists service that provides a
continuation for the lists in the @lists.alioth.debian.org domain.

Addresses that were not migrated have been disabled some time  ago. As
a result your package is now in violation of a "must" in the Debian
policy (3.3, working email address), making it unfit for release.

Please fix this before long. Among other reasons, keep in mind bug
reports and important notifications about your package might not reach
you.

Your options:

* Upload another version with a new maintainer address of your choice,

* Migrate the list to the new system. This is still possible,
  please appoint a Debian developer as a list owner first, then
  contact the alioth lists migration team 
  and provide all the necessary information.

  More information about the new service can be found here:
  

* More options, even if imperfect, can be found at
  


The first option is probably suitable only if the address was used just
in a small number of packages since this requires an upload for each of
them. To our knowledge, the usage count of
pkg-mc-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org is 1.

The second option is available for a limited time only, by end of
May 2018 the most. So if you're interested in going this way, start the
process as soon as possible.

Note, as mails to the maintainer address will not get through, this
bugreport is Cc'ed (X-Debbugs-CC:) to all uploaders of the package.

Regards,

Christoph and some alioth-lists maintainers
