[school-core] Schoolforge Mailing list change in process

[David Bucknell <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello to Schoolforge-core members,

The following is FYI.  Let us know if you have any comments on this. I
was going to set up Mailman on the same server as the Web site, but
won't do that until I'm sure it won't work on the server where the
majordomo installation resides.  The only reason it might not work
would be if they (seul.org) weren't up to the maintenance.  Otherwise,
it would be nice to maintain our historical ties with them.

Best wishes,

David

Many thanks, Roger.  It seems like the time to do this.  Let's try
sticking with seul.org, for now, if you all are willing to continue
helping schoolforge.net.  Thank you for the offer/idea.

Hello, Ales.  Would you be willing to set up mailman for
schoolforge-discuss and schoolforge-core on our behalf?  Please let us
know.

Thank you.

Best wishes,

David Bucknell
