Hi,

Why not use commonly choosen subdomain like other projects i.e
lists.libreoffice.org
See Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, etc.

What does the 'global' has in common with mailing lists?

Cheers,
Lukasz

Seems to be more reasonable to me.

looking at what people said, I guess everyone is in favor of this solution,
indeed.

If people prefer we could use "main" instead of "global" (just because
it's shorter), but I prefer "global" here.

Following the mailing list list [1] this would mean:

l10n@libreoffice.org -> l10n@global.libreoffice.org
users@libreoffice.org -> users@global.libreoffice.org
website@libreoffice.org -> website@global.libreoffice.org
documentation@libreoffice.org -> documentation@global.libreoffice.org
marketing@libreoffice.org -> marketing@global.libreoffice.org
design@libreoffice.org -> design@global.libreoffice.org
accessibility@libreoffice.org -> accessibility@global.libreoffice.org

Christian proposed using @www.libreoffice.org, but I dislike it for two
reasons:

* lots of people will simply leave out the @www as they do for surfing the
web, which will lead to bounces and confusion

* @www sounds stupid for mailing lists

I am very much in favor of @global.libreoffice.org as it reflects what it is
-- not a local list, but a global one. So, if nobody shouts out loud, I will
use this subdomain.

I already contacted GMANE and mail-archive.com so we can have our archives
renamed there as well.

Perhaps this chance might be used to move the LibreOffice related
discuss@documentfoundation.org list to @libreoffice.org too?

discuss@documentfoundation.org -> discuss@global.libreoffice.org
(and leave discuss@TDF to discussions about the foundation)

Indeed, this makes sense. I have something similar in mind for announce@tdf

So, last chance to veto :-)
