Re: Announcement: this mailing list will be retired by the end of Oct 2022
Hi, I’ve received several questions during the past days which possibly makes sense to summarize in a single topic [1] which I can then reference. Hopefully this specific post will help anyone looking for the same set of answers as well. If any additional common question arises I’ll make sure to add it to this same topic in Discourse. Thanks and please let us know if you have any questions around Discourse or your onboarding process!

Felix, tagging means adding a tag to a specific thread that is created to make sure it can easily be filtered out and most importantly it can easily be configured as a watcher (i.e the process that allows you to receive an email when a new email / response has been added to a thread). Our Discourse instance already has a tag called "mc", which can be used to tag a specific thread at creation time (or later on in the process) to make sure it gets properly filtered for contributors that are only interested in mc conversations. Each Discourse category comes with an email endpoint, let's say you want to create a new thread under the Applications category, you can send an email to the applicati...@discourse.gnome.org email and it gets automatically posted to Discourse, like you do today with Mailman. In the background we can configure an automatic tag, that is whenever the Midnight Commander or MC word is mentioned (similar to what happens today with Mailman list name tag on subjects) the "mc" tag is automatically added to your thread, that eases consumption by your contributors which have watchers defined for the "mc" tag. Other interesting information: Receiving notifications about Evolution related threads in Discourse: 1. Go to Notifications Tags at https://discourse.gnome.org/my/preferences/tags 2. Add "evolution" under "Watched" or "Tracked" (depends on how many notifications you want to get) Docs: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/tags-and-watching/94 How to interact with Discourse via email: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/interacting-with-discourse-via-email/46 Docs about personal notification settings: https://discourse.gnome.org/my/preferences/notifications Let me know if you need further help, I'll be more than happy to help your transition. Thanks!

Hi, As we have been communicating during the past few months GNOME's Mailman platform is being decommissioned (python2 deprecation, major burden in managing lists spam). The deadline is currently set to the end of October 2022. Mailing list subscribers are invited to migrate to GNOME's Discourse instance [1]. Neil made sure [2] to create a set of tags you can re-use to initiate a new topic in the new platform, if a tag is missing please reach out to me directly. Jehan (from the GIMP Team) kindly provided some instructions you can follow [3] in order to safely migrate your reading workflow to Discourse. The new platform supports several login methods including your GNOME Account and other major OpenID providers. After the deadline of the end of October Mailman archives will remain alive in read only mode for posterity. If the mailing list was used behind an alias, please let me know so we can re-do the same setup but on Discourse instead. Thanks, P.S All the l10n lists are still pending code changes in damned-lies, the deadline to decommission those lists may slip by a week or two depending how soon those changes will be made available in DL codebase [1] https://discourse.gnome.org [2] https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2022-September/msg00018.html [3] https://discourse.gnome.org/t/welcome-to-gimp-forum-on-gnome-discourse/11534/5 -- Cheers, Andrea Principal Systems Engineer at Red Hat, GNOME Infrastructure Team Coordinator, Former GNOME Foundation Board of Directors Secretary, GNOME Foundation Membership & Elections Committee Chairman Homepage: https://www.dragonsreach.it ___ mc-devel mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
