Mea culpa — I’m the one who set it up, but I suck at
marketing/promotion/sales/etc. I’m more the type who shyly raises his hand and
says “Um, I made something…”, and then gets sad when people don’t rush over and
look at it, and goes home and listens to the Cure in his bedroom. But I’m
working on it.
So, take 2: Since xcode-users and lists.apple.com <http://lists.apple.com/> are
clearly going away, I made a replacement on the free-mailing-list site
groups.io <http://groups.io/>, which is kind of like Google Groups but better.
The groups are simultaneously mailing lists and web forums (and dessert
toppings), they support searchable archives and wikis and calendars and other
frills, and the UI is pretty nice.
The top level group is here:
https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/main <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/main>
It’s mostly a container for subgroups, of which there are currently five (but
I’m open to adding more.)
email@hidden <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/applescript>
email@hidden <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/cocoa>
email@hidden <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/drivers>
email@hidden <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/objc>
email@hidden <https://apple-dev.groups.io/g/xcode>
Since xcode-users is on life support and could disappear at any moment, as
could any of the other Apple lists, go sign up now! Tell your friends!
And if anyone who doesn’t suck at marketing would like to spread the word, I
would be grateful :)
—Jens
