[virtio-dev] Migration schedule update for this mail list

I am very pleased to announce a new List Mail system will be implemented
for this list shortly.

The legacy list engine in use since 2003 will go offline for migration
20-24 February.  You are receiving this message because you are a
subscriber to the list receiving this message.

This transition will provide significant improvements and will change how
you interact with your mail lists.  See below for more information about
the changes, the transition schedule and what you can do to help.

Changes to Expect

The new platform is built in a modern web environment and mail delivery
mechanism. with a number of new features to improve both your platform user
experience and ability to engage with the OASIS community.  Key features
include:


   -

   Mail systems that you can depend on!  The new tools support and comply
   with major deliverability and anti-spoofing standards.  This will eliminate
   many of the sending and deliverability issues your group may be experiencing



   -

   Modern web interface and design for your committee internal work and
   public presentation of your work



   -

   If you are on this public list in addition to Technical Committees, Open
   Projects, and other community engagement mail lists you can manage this
   experience in one cohesive package



   -

   All resources created in the legacy email system will be migrated and
   available cohesively with your new work in the new platform.  All URL links
   for assets in the old platform will redirect to the new location



   -

   After the migration you will be directed where to send future messages
   for this list and where to find the archives.  You should update your
   bookmark and email contact list accordingly



   -

   After the migration you will be required to create or login to an
   existing OASIS public community or member account to manage your
   subscriptions.  Legacy-style subscribe and unsubscribe email messages to
   the server will not be respected.



The Transition Schedule

This mail list will be offline 20-24 February. During the downtime you will
not receive email messages sent to this list or have access to the
archive.  Senders will receive a reply pointing them to current migration
status information and where to find the new resources.

What You Should Do Now

If you no longer wish to subscribe to this list, send a message to
[listname][email protected]

Otherwise, watch for further messages in the coming days to include the new
list mailing address and archive location.

Feel free to contact me with any questions, and thanks for your patience
with the inevitable short-term inconvenience implementing these
improvements will bring.
