Re: opencog-dev list

 

Joining launchpad-beta-testers will allow any opencog-dev member to access
the Mailman functions (i.e. to join the opencog-dev Mailman list), but it
also redirects all of a user's sessions to the Launchpad beta test site (for
all beta code); I didn't want to opt-in everyone to be full beta testers (by
requesting that opencog-dev become a member of launchpad-beta-testers) since
we're only a few days away from the release of the beta Mailman/Launchpad
integration code.

Membership of opencog-dev in the mailing-list-beta-testers group is what
allowed the opencog-dev Mailman list to be created, and individual
membership in launchpad-beta-testers is what allows users to join the list.
The user membership in mailing-list-beta-testers inherited from the
opencog-dev group membership is just an inconsequential side-effect. Aren't
these  Zopey/Pythonic OOP effects fun? ;-)
