Hi all, Once again the listmaster team has been fairly busy, closing out some older bugs (one 3 year old bug related to digest issues) and creating mailing lists. This time around most of the lists are language related, the only two to mention are deity (used for apt development) which has been opened up to all subscribers. Previously you could only subscribe to the digest version (deity-digest). Another notable list is debian-accessibility which aims to make "Debian is accessible to people with disabilities." I've been informed by Santiago that crossassassin has reduced spam by about 30% across all mailing lists. We've just installed a newer version which should also catch some variations. Just a reminder that crossassassin achieves what it does by delaying email briefly. Once its delay threshold has passed the mail is sent on. Crossposted spam typically arrives all of once -- hence the delay. Additionally a mechanism to bypass the crossassassin delay is in the works. We are currently moving to implement moderation on posts which have a spamassassin value above 3.5. Those of you subscribed to debian-news would have seen the (somewhat comical) results of what happens when two listmasters collide and modify the same thing but differently. - new lists: debian-news-french debian-devel-italian debian-l10n-finnish debian-l10n-german debian-user-turkish deity (reopened to the public) debian-accessibility Further information is available at <URL: http://people.debian.org/~mlang/DebianAccessibilityProject.html> Regards, Anand -- `` We are shaped by our thoughts, we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves. '' -- Buddha, The Dhammapada
