Bug #: 39484
Summary: Rename "chaptercommittee-l" to
"affiliationscommittee-l" (+ aliases)
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Mailing lists
AssignedTo: wikibugs-
ReportedBy:
CC: , ,
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
As the Chapters Committee is going to be renamed to "Affiliations Committee" in
a few weeks' time (see also bug 39482), it would be lovely to have the mailing
list use a new name and a new address.
The suggested change would be from the current "chaptercommittee-l" to
"affiliationscommittee-l", with the archives moved to the new address (just
like in the case with Foundation-l being moved to Wikimedia-l).
We would also appreciate having the old address redirect to the new one to
avoid linkrot; also, as the new address will be quite a long one, it'd be great
to have an alias "affcom-" to simplify the matters for
outside users.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Tomasz,
The new mailing list standardisation means that we are dropping the -l suffix
on all lists:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Standardization#Naming_scheme.
Therefore, the new mailing list would be
.
However, if you look at this part of the standardisation,
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Standardization#Committees,
shortening the name to just affcom@ might be something to consider, as we have
langcom@ instead of languagescommittee@, spcom@ instead of
sisterprojectscommittee@ etc - it just keeps things simple.
What are your thoughts?

Hi THO,
thanks for such a prompt reply, and excuse my ignorance in terms of mailing
list names :-)
From my perspective, it would be even better to have the address shortened to
""; in this case, I would just like to keep the old
address as an alias, because it's virtually everywhere and it'd be better for
people not to receive bounces from the mail servers when they use it.
Thanks!
