Re: [cp-global] plan for shutting down the iceland domain in may 2027

[eevvoor mailbox.org via <global@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I will not join if it is on Matrix.
I use Jabber/XMPP only and for the XMPP standard organization we use e-mails heavily. I think a chat is only an addition, not a replacement for mailing lists. SO I would be happy if you migrate the list to the org domain! greetings, eevvoor PS thx for paying!
