new mailing lists for glibc bugzilla

[Roland McGrath]

Hi there.  We're going to need some new mailing lists on
sources.redhat.com.  These will have open subscription, but should be sent
to exclusively by bugzilla.  The config for the gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org
mailing list is probably the same as what we want for these, though
bugzilla's sender address is probably sources.redhat.com not gcc.gnu.org
for our bugzilla.

Btw, are sources.redhat.com and gcc.gnu.org the same or different for the
mailing list name space?  

I know for sure now that we want:

	glibc-bugs
	glibc-bugs-regex

We might want additional distinct glibc-bugs-foo lists as well.
I haven't polled all the developers about that yet.


Thanks,
Roland

Hi.  I mentioned this before but it seems not to have happened.  
Please create new mailing lists glibc-bugs and glibc-bugs-regex at
sources.redhat.com; these should be configured the same way as 
the gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org list is configured, however that is.
Except that if there is a responsible human, that should be <roland@gnu.org>.

Can we have these lists ASAP?


Thanks,
Roland

Part of the problem is that when using ezmlm it's actually not that
easy to configure a list the same way as another list.  It's easier to
configure the list de novo.  This is because the ezmlm configuration
information is stored in lots of little files.

In any case, I took a stab at this.  The lists now exist.  Probably
some configuration settings will have to be changed.  Let us know
about any changes you would like.

FWIW, the "mkmail" script should automate the required steps.

Cool.  I'll have to remember that one.

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/glibc-bugs is not there, and a glibc-bugs test
posting and a glibc-bugs-request subscribe message both went into the black
hole with no response so far.  Is the list really there?


Thanks,

OK, I scrapped what I had done, and used the mkmail script.  The web
page is there now, though it could use some customization.

This mailing list is managed by ezmlm, so there is no -request
address.  To subscribe, send e-mail to
    glibc-bugs-subscribe@sources.redhat.com

I'm sure stuff will have to change.  Let us know what it is.
