Hello dspace-tech subscribers,

This dspace-tech SourceForge mailing list will be migrated to Google
Groups TOMORROW (Thurs, Aug 27) at approximately 19:00 UTC (3pm EDT).

Unfortunately, because of Google Group's strict policies to avoid
spammers, we will be UNABLE to migrate your existing subscription on
your behalf. But, all dspace-tech mailing list archives will be
migrated automatically to the new location.

ACTION REQUIRED: Once the mailing list is migrated, you will need to
re-subscribe yourself to the new "dspace-tech" Google Group in order to
continue receiving these emails. At that point, a final notice will be
sent to all subscribers of this SourceForge list, detailing how to
quickly join the new mailing list. Your email address will also be
unsubscribed from the retired SourceForge mailing list.

OPTIONALLY, if you want to get a jump on things (and ensure you don't
miss a message), you may immediately send a "join request" via one of
these routes:
* Email /dspace-tech+***@googlegroups.com /You'll receive an email
response that tells you to either *reply* to submit your "join request",
or click a link.
* OR visit https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-tech and click
"Apply to join group" (You must be logged in to see that button)
Submitting a "Join Request" will ensure you are immediately subscribed
to the new mailing list once the migration is completed.

This migration from SourceForge to Google Groups is taking place for the
following reasons:
1) SourceForge hosting has been unstable recently. Our SF-hosted mailing
lists have gone down twice in the last six months.
2) Google Groups provides better list search and management capabilities.
3) Other DuraSpace projects use Google Groups and have had good
experiences with it.
4) All other DSpace mailing lists have already moved to Google Groups in
the past few weeks: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Mailing+Lists

Thanks,

Tim Donohue
