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

[Otto Dassau]

Hi, 

Frank just gave me admin access to the new mailing list. 
http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/admin/qgis-community-team/general

What would now be the best procedure to go on?

a) Change mailing list entry at qgis homepage
b) batch resubscribe users from the old list (does anybody has experience with
that?) and would that include to unsubsribe users as well from qgis-doc?
c) Do we usually have more than one ml admin? Shall I add another PSC member?

regards,
 Otto
