[admin] mailing lists for mod_lisp, cl-pdf and cl-typesetting
Hi, I received several suggestions to setup mailling lists for mod_lisp, cl-pdf and cl-typesetting. Can I do this on common-lisp.net ? Thanks, Marc

CL-PDF is under BSD-style license, and mod_lisp under Apache License, right? For them at least, I definitely approve. I'm under the impression that you're not distributing the source to cl-typesetting yet: this makes hosting a mailing list for it at Common-lisp.net slightly controversial. However, since I think there is a clear intent to release it, I approve. By the by, are you *sure* you want just mailing lists, and not full project hosting? The point made by some folks on cll is quite true: giving people early access to source is much likelier to bring contributors -- especially giving them CVS/SVN/Arch access as opposed to just tarballs. Cheers, -- Nikodemus

If these are indeed the licenses, I (definitely) approve too. Marc, did you already choose the licence under which you will release cl-typesetting?

I agree 100%. Regards, Mario.

BSD style as usual.

Hum... I've replied to Nikodemus about this. What do you think about my arguments? Cheers, Marc
The mailing lists seem to not work. I posted messages to them yesterday but they didn't came through nor bounced. David J Cooper Jr also posted a message without more success. Marc PS I put you all in copy to avoid the possible list server problem.
