Since I was there already, I went ahead and ran this on the lists marked as inactive. I keyed off any lists which contained the string "This list is currently closed for inactivity. Please e-mail admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to have it re-enabled." string in the list description. (I also fixed up the descriptions for the security-commits and srilanka lists, as they seemed to have some bogus text mingled with the previous description and the inactivity string.) If we plan to run this sort of thing again in the future, we can adjust the mark_unadvertised script easily to handle all the tasks: setting the list's emergency moderation; adjusting the list description; and marking the list unadvertised. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important. -- Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)
