Mailing lists
There are three Linux/MIPS-oriented mailing lists:
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- This mailing list currently has the most traffic. It is especially of interest as a good number of active developers are subscribed to this list.
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- This is an announcement only mailing list to which the log message and the diffstat output for every GIT commit into linux-mips.org's, GIT repository, is being sent. This allows following the development as it happens.
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- This is an announcement only mailing list. The content is the same as on linux-git except that emails contain the full patch commited into GIT also. If you subscribe to this list be prepared to receive huge emails. Most people will probably prefer reading the HTML archive instead.
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- A mailing list for discussing NUBI, the new MIPS ABI proposed by MIPS Technologies. Despite the domain name of the address, use of NUBI is not intended to be restricted to building Linux kernels and applications.
- email@example.com
- firstname.lastname@example.com
- These two mailing lists were renamed into email@example.com rsp. email@example.com, see above.
Posting to lists
- Keep in mind that you actually want people read your postings, so invest a few extra minutes to make proper sentence. Remember what your teacher told you at school?
- Read and absorb RFC 1855.
- Don't top quote:
From: Erik Mouw <email@example.com> Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2006 15:40:09 +0200 To: "Abu M. Muttalib" <email@example.com> Cc: firstname.lastname@example.com, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com Subject: Re: __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (Jes Sorensen) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail? A: No. Q: Should I leave quotations after my reply?
- Disable any ridiculous corporate legalese email footers. It's not only annoying but also ridiculous on public mailing lists and of dubious legal value, if any.
If email was a school subject your teachers would have told this.
Subscription to these lists is handled via Ecartis (email@example.com), just send an email with the words subscribe <list-name>. In order to unsubscribe, send unsubscribe linux-mips. Sending the word "help" will reveal further secrets about the advanced use of Ecartis. There's also a web-based interface to Ecartis.
Note linux-mips.org is using the Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) TCP extension as described in RFC 3168. The bug is known for years yet still defective firewalls that are dropping TCP SYN packets with ECN bits set are in use. If you can reach linux-mips.org yet don't receive any email from any of the linux-mips.org mailing lists you may have this problem.
Since the majority of subscribers doesn't seem to like HTML email the list is configured to drop HTML email.
There are archives for these lists in UNIX mbox format and a searchable web archive. The web archive is re-indexed every few hours, so usually it's a good idea to try it first when searching for anything that might be archived on one of the lists. Archives are also maintained for a few historic mailing lists.
Privacy: linux-mips.org will not use the subscriber list for any other purpose than operation of the mailing lists and in rare cases for other administrative purposes of linux-mips.org. Postings to the public mailing lists will be archived and possibly mirrored on other sites. If you don't like this don't post.
Verizon users
Since a little while Verizon is blocking email from Britain, France, Germany and Russia. According to the company this is due to spam - even though the USA are clear leader in global spam. Anyway, if you're a Verizon user don't mail us about this problem. It's Verizon's fault and we don't do anything to workaround this problem and frankly we couldn't care less than about an ISP patronizing it's customers this way.

Channing Tatum's pregnant wife Jenna celebrated the impending arrival of their first child at a special baby shower with her actress friends and fellow moms-to-be, Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Joanna Garcia Swisher.
The expectant mothers, also including "7th Heaven" star Beverley Mitchell, gathered at Soho House in West Hollywood on March3 to toast Jenna Dewan-Tatum's bulging belly and guests were treated to vanilla cupcakes as they played trivia games all about the beauty.
Gushing about the party, Mitchell says, "Everytime we see each other, we get a little bigger. We're all so close, it's fun being pregnant together."
And Dewan-Tatum, who has decided not to find out the sex of her unborn child ahead of his or her birth, will be well-prepared for the baby's arrival, thanks to the pile of gifts she received at the shower.
A source tells Us Weekly, "Jenna got everything from a swanky stroller to cute little socks."
The get-together was planned months ahead of the baby's summer due date as the couple is preparing to jet off to London, where the baby is expected to be born as the "Magic Mike" hunk shoots his new movie, "Jupiter Ascending," in the city.
The insider adds, "Jenna wanted to have the shower with her friends while she still could."
