Hi,
Might this be an opportunity to also migrate the Workstation WG to a separate "workstation" list? I think keeping the existing list made sense when there was the possibility the that Workstation edition might actually include several different desktop technologies, and might even have had a different name or branding. But now, it seems mostly confusing (both because people end up in the wrong place, and because it muddles the message).
Well, my concerns would be:
- either, we wouldn't get old archives in hyperkitty if we renamed the list
or 2) old links to archives would break 3) people's mail filters will break.
But maybe we can solve those problems somehow?
I would suggest keeping it simple, throwing less variables / things to go wrong in the mix, and just migrate the list as-is and consider a list name change further down the road.
That's my feeling too. There have been plenty of folks in recent months coming in to the list to ask questions and participate in discussions. Without a plan in place to go through all the places where we reference this list already and fix those, I'm not in favor of moving at this time, but we can certainly reconsider down the road.
