Initiatives

Move of mailing list members@sigfsm.org: currently hosted at Stuttgart (I left last October; difficult to manage; access might “disappear”) Proposals:

transition list to Leipzig (invisible to members) upgrade to GNU Mailman https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/index.html (self-delisting, message control, public repository)

Questions:

Should postings be publicly visible forever? Shall foreign content be permitted? (level of moderation)
