Greetings,
As announced in the release notice for PowerTOP v2.0, PowerTOP’s home is
moving to 01.org. As PowerTOP has a new home on 01.org, we will be using
only 01.org and discontinue all others sites, locations, and mailing
lists.
Unfortunately we will not be able to migrate archives and subscriptions to
facilitate this move. For the next two to four weeks I will be monitoring
both the mailing lists (discuss-***@public.gmane.org and lesspower-072X8lT/***@public.gmane.org )
and sending periodic notices, to allow for the transition the PowerTOP
community members.

Please feel free to mail any of the lists during this transition time if
you have any issues subscribing.

Thank you very much for your support,
Chris Ferron

This is unfortunate, as I (at least) value many of the discussions on
this list as "high quality". Other than saved on my hard drive and
backups, is there not an official place on 01 that y'all could store
them? It could be as simple as an rsync command (section 3.3 of
"Migrating mailman lists" [1]) and an Nginx directive.

I truly hope that you save the archives for public consumption.

In the meantime, congratulations on v2.0. Job well done!

Kevin

Don't fear, we have the archives so the discussions will not be lost.
As you said, there are a lot of high quality discussions, and we are
looking into the best way to make them available moving forward. The only
thing that we know will not happen is the transfer of maillist
subscription. As for archives, we are still working on that.

One of the issues we face over all is having two mailing lists. Moving to
01.org solves several issues including this one.

Please keep you interests coming, I want to make sure this change is
fruitful and positive as possible.

Dear Chris,

moving to 01.org. As PowerTOP has a new home on 01.org, we will be using
only 01.org and discontinue all others sites, locations, and mailing
lists.
please note the projects overview page for Lesswatts [1] still mentions
the old(?) Web site and mailing list.

Does discontinue mean not maintained anymore or shut down entirely?
There are other places like in the Linux kernel documentation where the
Lesswatts Web site is mentioned [3].

It would be very user unfriendly if the links will not work anymore and
no proper redirects are set up.

Thanks,

Paul


PS: The Lesswatts Web site [2] is not working currently.

we;re working on these, which is also why the transition will take some
time...
