Mailing List Migration
In order to provide the best possible service, IPDA mailing lists are now migrated to Google Groups.
Google Groups enables collaboration tools with traditional email list subscription features as well as modern forum-style interaction through your web browser. In addition, Google Groups provides
- Better spam protection
- Google search for mailing list messages
- Linking with your Google profile and ID
Message archives for all lists have been preserved and are still available (see the section below for more details). In addition, the old mailing addresses for the groups will automatically be forwarded to the new Google Groups.
If you have not received an invitation, you can request to join the new mailing lists by clicking on the list name in the table below (except for the Steering Committee, which is private).
Migrated Groups
The following table describes the mailing lists that were previously hosted on lists.planetarydata.org and their new home on Google Groups.
