Sorry,

He's still the person in charge at nabble so I imagine we need some
action by his hand other than asking for his credentials or for nabble
support. If he is not able to do that for whatever reason we should do
a formal request to nabble to get control of the forum and sub-forums.

For Tiling mailing list archive import I think we can wait to see what
they respond to Mateusz post. As soon as I get the admin of nabble
will see how to add it to OSGeo tree.
