Snowdrift.coop email lists (finally!) and code now at git.gnu.io

This is 2+ years late, but finally Snowdrift.coop has email lists! http://lists.snowdrift.coop/

Of course, there's also our blog https://snowdrift.coop/p/snowdrift/blog and feed https://snowdrift.coop/p/snowdrift/feed and other activity on the site itself, and our #snowdrift freenode channel. Those will all stay active.

I don't like too much fragmentation of discussion, but nothing else we've had adequately replaces the value of traditional email lists (at this time).

The other news is: we've made our choice post-Gitorious. Our code is now at https://git.gnu.io/snowdrift/snowdriftand we have a new BEGINNERS.md file with a complete getting-started for contributing even for those with basically no experience with any of the technologies we use. We care about welcoming everyone!

The links to the email lists and the new code will be up on the site sometime soon. :ots of other news coming, pushing ahead… hard work and all… we always love more folks coming to help. Thanks all! Thanks to our many contributors already, and especially to @mattl for getting git.gnu.io set up!

Sorry for hijacking your thread! I think Snowdrift is one of the most interesting and potentially important things to happen in the Free Software space in years, and I am actually joining the list right now. :-)

Make that lists!

Both the Dev subscription and the Join All The Things subscription on the page are broken though:

mailto:[email protected]?subject=subscribe

Should be @lists.snowdrift.coop like the rest of them.

The error message is pretty cute though:

<dev-subscribe@lists.
snowdrift.dev>: connect to
    your-dns-needs-immediate-attention.dev[127.0.53.53]:25: Connection refused
