Hello list,

The Kalyxo project is slowly growing... and needs to have its real name used. 
The kde-debian and kde-debian-devel lists were a kind of temporary solution, 
and were named this way because of the original group code-name "kde-debian".

If we want to grow correctly, we have to change some things coming from the 
project history. Hence, the name of this mailing list is not relevant 
anymore.

Moreover, even if it's currently low traffic, we've seen that most of the 
mails coming here should be sent to @debian.org lists. Let's face it the 
kde-debian name is really confusing for a non trivial amount of users, and 
it's really understandable.

That's why we've opened new mailing lists, and the current ones will be closed 
in 12 weeks from now (around the 25th of December).

Of course we won't let the current subscribers alone and lost in the myriads 
of existing mailing lists. So here are my advices:

-------
1) If you are a user interested in KDE packages maintained inside Debian (in 
general kdelibs, kdebase, kdepim, kdenetwork...), you should subscribe to 
this list: http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/
You'll be at the right place and have a better support than from us, since 
we're not the maintainers of those packages.

2) If you are a user interested in the Kalyxo project or using some of the 
packages we make, you should subscribe to this list: 
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kalyxo
For our package list please look at these pages:
http://www.kalyxo.org/bin/view/Main/KalyxoPackages
http://www.kalyxo.org/debian/

Please note that we package the NX technology for Debian but we're _not_ the 
NX/FreeNX/kNX developers. If you need to reach the FreeNX and kNX developers 
you should subscribe to this list too:
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/freenx-knx

3) If you are a Kalyxo developer (you have packaged something currently in our 
staging archive or contributed code), you should subscribe to this list:
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kalyxo-devel

If you want to become a Kalyxo developer by contributing more interesting KDE 
related packages to our list or by working on our upcoming Debian flavor 
(installer, security fixes, maintaining the website) the previous list apply 
to you and you should subscribe to help us.

Moreover you will find a list of tasks for the Kalyxo project here:
http://www.kalyxo.org/bin/view/Main/TaskList

Of course, for developers subscribing to this list is strongly encouraged too: 
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kalyxo
Our users will need support! ;-)
-------

I'll try to send regularly reminders of this planned closing. You can already 
subscribe to the brand new kalyxo and kalyxo-devel lists. Of course, all the 
Kalyxo traffic will occur on the new lists now, but I'll try to forward the 
important announces here.

If you have more questions feel free to ask, I'll be glad to answer you.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your understanding.

Regards.
