Notes:

  • You must subscribe to the list to be able to post. This is to minimize spam.

  • A few big email services (including GMail) occasionally consider the messages to be spam. Sometimes the messages are completely blocked for a while.

  • Write in English.

  • Use plain text (no HTML email).

  • Avoid top posting.

  • Now that the XZ projects are on GitHub, some people prefer it over a mailing list, so you may want to check for activity there too.
