Ingo,

Using your list as an example, here is what I see at the bottom of the
kde-core-devel page you just linked to:

kde-core-devel <https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-core-devel> list
run by coolo at kde.org, dfaure at kde.org, per.kde at
gmail.com<kde-core-devel-owner@kde.org>

What I did was go into each page such as
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-core-devel and copy those email
addresses from that line into my spreadsheet.  Sounds like maybe this is no
good and I need to replace the email addresses with listname-owner@kde.org =
for
each list that seems to be out of date? (e.g. kde-core-devel-owner (at)
kde.org in this example)

&gt; &gt; Thanks Martin!  I copied the email text I had in mind below<br> &gt; &gt; \
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; and the spreadsheet is attached.  I used &lt;&lt; &gt;&gt;&#39;s \
to signify<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; where info would need to be pulled in \
from the spreadsheet.<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Also, for some<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; lists there are multiple moderators.  We separated \
their<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; email addresses with spaces in that column \
when there was<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; more than one.  Let me know if you \
have any questions or<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; need clarification.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Hint: It would be much easier to use <a \
href="mailto:listname-owner@kde.org">listname-owner@kde.org</a><br> &gt; &gt; &gt; \
&gt; &gt; instead of the addresses of all admins/moderators.<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; \
&gt;<br> </div><div class="im">&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Wow, I really wish I&#39;d known \
about that moderator mailing list<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; 6 months ago<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; :)  Thanks Ingo!<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; So maybe instead of sending out all these individualized \
emails<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; we could just send the following to that mailing list \
and then<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; take appropriate action.  Please let me know if \
anyone has any<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; feedback on this, otherwise I will go ahead \
and send it out<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; early next week:<br>
</div>[snip]<br>
<div class="im">&gt; &gt; &gt; Ack...maybe I misread that.  Ingo, is there a \
&quot;mailing list of<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; list admins&quot;? Or were you just saying \
we could use one email<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; address for each list instead of mailing \
each moderator on every<br> &gt; &gt; &gt; list individually?<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
</div><div class="im">&gt; &gt; There are list owner addresses that are fowarders to \
the mailing<br> &gt; &gt; list administrators.<br>
<br>
</div>Hmm, AFAIK I&#39;m just a moderator of kde-core-devel (at least, I&#39;m \
not<br> mentioned in the footer of<br>
<a href="https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-core-devel" \
target="_blank">https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-core-devel</a>), but I \
still<br> receive copies of messages sent to <a \
                href="mailto:kde-core-devel-owner@kde.org">kde-core-devel-owner@kde.org</a>.<br>
                
*shrug*<br>
<div class="im"><br>
<br>
&gt; &gt; So, for the kopete-devel list, there is a<br>
&gt; &gt; <a href="mailto:kopete-devel-owner@kde.org">kopete-devel-owner@kde.org</a> \
email address that forwards to me,<br> &gt; &gt; since I&#39;m the mailing list<br>
&gt; &gt; admin for that list. For lists with multiple owners, everybody<br>
&gt; &gt; listed as a mailing list owner would get the mail. Note that<br>
&gt; &gt; mailing list owners are separate from list moderators.<br>
&gt;<br>
</div><div class="im">&gt; Matt, thanks for the clarification.  I believe the \
spreadsheet we<br> &gt; compiled only lists the moderators&#39; email addresses.<br>
<br>
</div>I think you mean list admins instead of moderators. :-)<br>
<div class="im"><br>
<br>
&gt; Is it even<br>
&gt; necessary to contact the moderators?  Should we just contact the list<br>
&gt; admins?  Or should we really be pinging them both?<br>
<br>
</div>I think contacting the list admins (aka list owners) should be<br>
sufficient.<br>
<br>
