I agree.

I think the email lists were wrongly configured.

I have modified this option on MailMan:
  "Where are replies to list messages directed? Poster is
   strongly recommended for most mailing lists."

I have removed "Poster" and set the "to This list" option.

The association list works, but the archive shows that error due to there is 
not any message kept on the archive yet.

Note that we will try to move the service to the FSF hosts before the 
announcement, to avoid a migration while we are already on production.
The only 'resource' which will not be moved is this list address@hidden
The association@ list will be moved due to it is binded to the @gnuherds.org 
domain, that will be moved.

If RMS accept host our project, maybe we will delay the announcement up to all 
is ready at the FSF hosts.

As pointed at 
http://mailman.fsfeurope.org/pipermail/gnubiz-disc/2005-August/000082.html

"we could implement the GBN on top of the GNU Herds jobsite."

"GBN would be some kind of certification mark for the companies in the 
database." That is what have done. We have added support to Certification 
tags. This could change due to it is been analyzed by the FSFE.

I wiki is cool,  wiki.gnuherds.org

However, RMS want to control what is exposed, to avoid the posting of bad job 
offers, etc.

To show our activities we use the Savannah Task manager.

Anyway, We can talk again about it after announcing.


Any flame, feedback, comment, etc., is welcome and needed,
