I really think it is easier if some people accept the responsibility of 
doing a gentle reminder every now and then to the list. It takes seconds 
to do this. However, it should be sent by someone who has an official 
designation to make impact/clout. This is normally done through the 
email identifier, in this case, &quot;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">____ at mageia.org</A>&quot;. It can be a temporary 
assignation till the organization is more structured. I am surprised 
that the email address assignation has not been addressed. It is such an 
easy thing to set up.

Marc
