Hello All:

Given the issues we had with the mailing list transition, we would like to =
solicit volunteers to assist in testing the "new" configuration.  Please no=
te, we are just moving the existing Mailman configuration to a new server u=
nder our control, but we have to move the list due to contractual obligatio=
ns.   Here's the basic scenario.

1) Build replica of existing NANOG Mailman server and configuration, except=
 we are updating all of the underlying applications, including the actual O=
S.
2) Create a test@mailtest.nanog.org mailing list
3) Have volunteers hammer the list and make sure the software setup is corr=
ect
4) Sync the existing list data to the new server
5) Flip DNS so that nanog@nanog.org is now served from the new server

If you are available and willing to assist in this test, please send me an =
email directly with the address you would like to use.  I will add you to t=
he new list when the software is configured and you will receive the usual =
welcome message. =20

Our timeline is tight for this transition; we have to be moved over to the =
new server no later than July 31st, so active testing and reporting is key.

Thank You,

Mike
