As maintainer of the freebsd comms/hylafax port, I have created a new list: freebsd-hylafax@vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de & this alias: freebsd-hylafax-request@vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de I would like to ask postmaster@freebsd.org to create a successor list: hylafax@freebsd.org (or perhaps freebsd-hylafax@freebsd.org) As vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de: - uses my 9K6 daily slip link, - is a mouthful of a hostname - isn't as appropriate as freefall anyway :-) - doesn't run majordomo yet, (I vi /etc/aliases + newaliases). If this proposal is acceptable to postmaster@freebsd.org, I will establish aliases for a while to freebsd.org from vector. The new list's remit: ------- - This list is for those interested in discussing the FreeBSD specific aspects of Hylafax. This is a self help group, not a place to give up & offload your problems ;-) Get the Hylafax source on FreeBSD from ports/comms/hylafax. - Hylafax generic aspects not unique to FreeBSD should be posted to flexfax@sgi.com, not here, ( echo "info flexfax" | mail majordomo@sgi.com) - Generic FreeBSD concerns that merely concern Hylafax as one of many FreeBSD ports, belong in lists such as ports@ or current@ or hackers@freebsd.org ( echo "info ports" | mail majordomo@freebsd.org) - The list will not be subscribed to either ports@freebsd.org or flexfax@sgi.com, senders should manually CC either (but not both) if they feel it truly appropriate. - The list is unmoderated ------- I have created an initial membership list of: jhs@freebsd.org,john@starfire.mn.org I can't find my list of freebsd hylafax people, So would they people (Lars Fredriksen, Andrei Chernov ? etc ) please mail freebsd-hylafax-request@vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de, I will later post a similar announcement to flexfax@sgi.com. I will add a suggestion to subscribe, to the ports/comms/hylafax/Makefile post-install: I realise we dont want a mail list for each freebsd port, but Hylafax is particularly big, with lots of tricky interfaces etc, hence need for the list, (A posting from john@starfire to ports@ was what sparked me to this idea).
