I am very pleased to announce a new List Mail system will be implemented for this list shortly.Â
The legacy list engine in use since 2003 will be replaced in December. You are receiving this message because you are a subscriber to the list receiving this message.
This transition will provide significant improvements and will change how you interact with your mail lists. See below for more information about the changes, the transition schedule and what you can do to help.
Changes to Expect
The new platform is built in a modern web environment and mail delivery mechanism. with a number of new features to improve both your platform user experience and ability to engage with the OASIS community. Key features include:
Mail systems that you can depend on! The new tools support and comply with major deliverability and anti-spoofing standards. This will eliminate many of the sending and deliverability issues your group may be experiencing
If you are on this public list in addition to Technical Committees, Open Projects, and other community engagement mail lists you can manage this experience in one cohesive packageÂÂ
All resources created in the legacy email system will be migrated and available cohesively with your new work in the new platform. All URL links for assets in the old platform will redirect to the new location
After the migration you will be directed where to send future messages for this list and where to find the archives.
After the migration you will be required to create or login to an existing OASIS public community or member account to manage your subscriptions. Legacy-style subscribe and unsubscribe email messages to the server will not be respected.
The Transition Schedule
Starting 14 December, there may be as much as several days of system downtime. During the downtime you will not receive email messages sent to this list or have access to the archive.ÂÂ
We will announce the timing specific as we get closer to the transition.
What You Should Do Now
If you no longer wish to subscribe to this list, send a message toÂ
[listname]-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org
Otherwise, watch for further messages in the coming days to include the new list mailing address and archive location.
Feel free to contact me with any questions, and thanks for your patience with the inevitable short-term inconvenience implementing these improvements will bring.
