Thanks, Robert. Call me naive, but shouldn't the administrative list creation process be separate from and not dependent on the list migration process? mailing lists do have to be migrated at some point, yes, but administrative decisions about them (creation, deletion, changing) should still be able to take place, given how essential to the IETF mailing lists are. I note that the terminology mailing list was set up in February 2021, so list creation was still possible them - before the October 2021 date that S. mentions. When was there a hold placed on creating new mailing lists for workgroups and such? thanks Lloyd Wood lloydwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx On Wednesday 18 September 2024 at 05:19:49 GMT+10, Robert Sparks <rjsparks@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: The creation of that list has been behind the evolution of the mail system (mailman3, the move to a new IT fabric, and the integration of mailman3 with the datatracker). The work to create and manage it is still in the queue, but is not yet done.
