This change means that the domain-part of all zeek.org mailing lists is going to change from ?zeek.org? to ?lists.zeek.org?. What changes does this entail / what does this mean for you: * All zeek.org mailing list domains will switch to lists.zeek.org. So, ?zeek at zeek.org? will be ?zeek at lists.zeek.org? afterwards. However, you will still be able to send messages to the old list address for the foreseeable future - they will automatically be forwarded to the new address If you are using mailing list filters to automatically sort Zeek mailing lists into folders, you will probably have to update them. * The mailing list archives and administrative interface will move to https://lists.zeek.org/. The old interface at http://mailman.icsi.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo will no longer be available; archives will also no longer be available at the old address. * Your subscription will automatically move, you do not have to take any action. When will this happen: * This change will happen on Monday the 27th of July, starting at approximately 9am PDT/noon EDT/4pm GMT/5pm BST/6pm CEST. Messages sent to the Zeek mailing lists during this time will be held. We will try to make sure that any messages that happen to be sent during this timeframe will make it over after the migration, but your message will probably make it faster if you wait till we are done. * The change will take a few hours; I will send another message to the individual lists once migration is done. Why are we moving the mailing lists: The current setup that we are using is being retired and we have to switch to a new provider. We are switching to a new domain because this makes our setup easier to maintain. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Johanna
