[Discuss] Changes in MPEGIF's mailing lists

Dear people,
As you may have noticed through some subscription messages, the 
MPEG Industry Forum is changing the domain name for its lists.
We have just completed the move from 
	<listname>@lists.m4if.org 
to 
	<listname>@lists.mpegif.org
This applies to both our public mailing and our member-only 
mailing lists.
There are three reasons for doing this:
1. M4IF has become MPEGIF
2. The list names are too popular among spammers (even though you
   don't notice this because we have effective filtering, but the 
   administrators certainly do know).
3. On the new domain, we have an archiving system that allows us to 
   hide the sender's email address, which should mean less spam 
   and more protection for you as participant.
What has just happened is the following:
* All lists (member-only and public) are now at lists.mpegif.org
* All subscriptions have been carried over to the new lists
  --> You do NOT NEED TO RE-SUBSCRIBE!
* Technotes has been renamed to MP4-Tech ..., in anticipation of
  similar MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 related lists;
* News ... and Discuss ... are now for MPEG-4, MPEG-7 and MPEG-21
  discussions and news;
* Postings to the old lists will be forwarded to the new ones
  for a limited time.
Please use the new addresses from now on.
Let me and Peter (CC) know in a private mail If you have any questions.
Kind Regards,		
Rob Koenen
