Description BJ Hargrave

As part of the transition of the OSGi Alliance mission to Eclipse, we need a replacement for the osgi-dev@mail.osgi.org mail list (https://mail.osgi.org/mailman/listinfo/osgi-dev). 

This is a public mail list for users of OSGi technology to ask questions and discuss. (This is separate from a mail list from the proposed OSGi Specification Project.)

Mail list description:

This is a technical mail list for developers using OSGi technology. Any OSGi technical discussion or questions are acceptable here.

The list has been created.  You can subscribe to it via accounts.eclipse.org -> mailing lists.

Does it take some time to show up? I don't see it at https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list

Ah. I see you created osgi-dev not osgi-users. Could we call it osgi-users instead?

Comment 5 Eclipse Webmaster

Ah, sorry about that.  Since renaming lists isn't practical I've created osgi-users .  Most(all?) Eclipse projects have a -dev list for technical discussions, and quite a few have a -user(s) list as well for community interaction, so let me know if you want the osgi-dev list removed.

-M.

I think we can remove the osgi-dev list. There are 2 project proposals for OSGi work: OSGi Specification Project and OSGi Technology Project. I assume that when each project is approved and then provisioned, that each project will have its own -dev list? So then we won't need the plain `osgi-dev` mail list.

(In reply to BJ Hargrave from comment #6)

I've queued the osgi-dev list for deletion.
