Fedora is to change the address of its mailing lists from fedora-*redhat.com to lists-*fedoraproject.org.
The move was declared by Jon Stanley on the fedora announce list, which still uses the fedora_announce_at_redhat.com address. This will soon change, with all lists migrating to *fedoraproject.org.
According to Stanley, many users found the domain name irritating, and with the migration, Fedora will gain full control of the mailing lists, making it easier to initiate new lists. For the moment, nothing will change for list users. Stanley is still working (together with Dennis Gilmore) on the backend infrastructure. Migration dates will be announced on each individual mailing list and subscribers remain registered. Mail filters will need to be changed to accommodate new List ID headers.
All mails will continue to be stored in the Red Hat mailing list server archives.
