[WG: Accessibility] Accessibility list moving

[Matt Clare]

Waited a bit to see if others might chime in,

I know there is occasionally participation from individuals who are otherwise not involved in Apereo projects on this list, and I would hate to loose their interest if this list moved or merged.  I think a lot of the "read only" participants on the list would not move over to other lists because of the big change in signal to noise (form an accessibility perspective).

I also don't think we should make decisions based on speculation about our least active participants.

When other lists faced this type of issue I recall that we consider the subscriber information confidential (I certainly don't know it, and I think that's fair) so I'm adding that [lack of] information for others to consider.

I'd appreciate more thoughts if they are out there.

I think we might even merge further, I'd probably merge qa into core team and I'd agree with moving this into dev as it's *very* low traffic.

I think we really should be able to get the lists down to only dev, user, core-team, spanish and openforum.

Maybe production could be separate from dev, but those issues almost always overlap.

Hi Accessibility,

We are planning to move all Sakai lists over to Apereo Google Groups. I don't have an exact time table yet, but thinking before the Apereo conference might be good. We think it will be feasible to preserve list archives for searching. Do you think we need to keep list archives for searching or could we start cleanly?

The new name could be something like sakai-accessibility at apereo.org<mailto:sakai-accessibility at apereo.org> or sakai-a11y at apereo.org<mailto:sakai-a11y at apereo.org>. Preferences for a new name?

Or, we could merge accessibility into Sakai-dev or Sakai-qa.

What do you think? Keep it as a separate list or merge to another list?

Thanks,
Neal Caidin
Sakai Community Coordinator
