Hello! There is a general outline here under "Managing your mailing list subscriptions generally: https://www.ietf.org/participate/lists/ Chair-specific info is available on the chairs wiki: https://chairs.ietf.org/en/mailing-lists#list-management We’ll be building those out, and looking at other ways to make the flow easier/more obvious. -Greg > On Jun 4, 2024, at 19:12, Mary B <mary.h.barnes@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I'll also add that while there may have been a post to WG chairs mailing list, it seems when WGs are closed, chairs are removed from that mailing list unless they are chairing an active working group.
