#1562 Email alias needed for fedora-india-opearations@fedoraproject.org.
Closed: Fixed None Opened 14 years ago by susmit.

We have just moved fedora-india operations to https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-india/ .

This is a request for an email alias where '''''fedora-india-operations@fedoraproject.org''''' will be pointed to {susmit,sankarshan,sundaram,kushal} AT fedoraproject DOT org

Thanks.


It's easier just to make a mailing list, why not do that?

No, we have a fedora-india mailing list.

This trac will mainly track budget requests and other things which are not to be discussed in public domain.

I fail to recall whoever said anything about public :)

We have something similar in north america, and it's a private mailing list that gets all of the trac stuff. I can help you set that up. I'm really against making aliases that the infrastructure team has to maintain, and in favor of making a mailing list that you can maintain however you see fit.

No, not that. The reason it was requested is if someone wants to make a budget/media request, he just drops a mail to the fedora-india-operations@fedoraproject.org, which is forwarded to us.

But yes, I understand that I have to make another request to infra team if we want to add another person to the id.

If maintaining this is problematic in the long run, please drop the request.

right, but we can change that to india-operations@lists.fp.o and have the same effect, with the bonus that you get to manage it.

I think that a "private" admin-centric mailing list that gets the trac stuff would suffice too. And, I agree that it would keep the hassles of maintaining an alias out. Is a mailing list possible then ?

List created, initial password mailed to sankarshan. I also set the list to be private immediately after creation - i.e. not on listinfo page and subscription requiring approval.

Thank you jstanley. Would the creation (and, responses to) of Trac tickets for the fedora-india Trac be also directed to this list ?

sigh...
Sankarshan, I shall take care of it.
Thanks, jstanley.
