I have installed mailman on the new server to server the wikipedia
lists. More specifically, someone requested a list "francais-l" be
added to the nupedia domain, but I found that a list by that name is
already in use for Nupedia's purposes, so I made it
francais-l@wikipedia.org instead. So, we now have the ability to make
any wikipedia lists point to wikipedia.org...
So, my question is this: On the old scheme, we prefixed the list name
with 'wiki' to indicate that it was for wikipedia. As I copy the old
lists to the new server, should I convert the list-names as well? I
think not, but I thought I should ask.
Also, are these the only wikipedia lists? I think they are.
Intlwiki-l
Wikitech-l
Wikipedia-l
WikiNL-l
And I think this begs another question. The Dutch list is WikiNL, and
the french list is francais-l (though this new list is not yet
public). Should we go with a standardized naming scheme on the
language-specific (or is it country-specific?) lists. Should I change
francais-l to wikiFR-l?
