+The Open Source Geospatial Foundation and its associated committees and projects maintain several mailing lists. These are described here, with links to pages where you can sign up for them. The majority of the OSGeo lists require you to be logged in before you can join them.
+ +For those unfamiliar with email lists, there are a few simple guidelines. Before posting a question to the list please search the mailing list archive to see if answers can be found. Avoid emailing others in the list directly about various topics, so that everyone can benefit from the discussion. Keep it civil: we have to live together in this community, don't make it an unpleasant experience. None of these areas are intended for commercial messages. There are more appropriate means of reaching your market without permanently damaging your reputation.
+ +For media-related queries, or questions about the Foundation that you do not want to post to the mailing lists, you can contact our Community Manager at info@osgeo.org.
+ +These lists can be joined from the main OSGeo mailing lists page.
+This is a low-volume list, typically used for announcing important events or major releases of our projects' software.
This list is for general discussion among OSGeo members. Anything that is of interest to OSGeo as a whole can be discussed here, including proposals for new committees and projects, items of general interest, and pointers to related issues.
+ + +These lists can be joined through several different places, linked below.
