[Biojava-l] OBF mailman server problems - BioJava mailing lists?

[Peter Cock]

Thanks Michael,

I've had a positive email from Jose Duarte (who I understand is now
BioJava's project lead, having taken over from Andreas Prlic -
congratulations), but this was not via the mailing list which has not been
working reliably.

Fingers crossed mailman and the archive are working again, but the OBF
still wants to migrate away from this elderly server setup.

Kind regards,

Peter
