[Qgis-psc] Re: problems with the doc mailing list?

[Tim Sutton]

Hi

I think we need to ask Frank to do this. Frank can you create a new
list for us called qgis-community-team and give Otto admin on that
list? Then we will just batch resubscribe users from the old list and
after a few weeks ask you to shut the old one down.

Thanks

Regards

Tim
