12 Historical information:
13 * We moved to the [[Forum>>https://forum.xwiki.org]] on May 2017. Prior to that we used to offer a [[User mailing list>>http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users]] and a Nabble Forum working on top of this mailing list (it's been decommissioned). There was also a Gmane archive (also decommissioned). We've decided to move to a [[Discourse-based>>https://www.discourse.org/]] forum for a nicer and simpler user experience (for example even though users were registered on Nabble, they were still required to also register on the user mailing list before being able to post on the list from Nabble).
14 * On 18th of September 2019 we also moved the development mailng list to the Forum.
15 * You can search for old messages using [[Markmail>>http://xwiki.markmail.org/]].

20 There are 3 mailing lists active:
21 * **[[notifications AT xwiki.org>>http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/notifications]]**: All code commits, JIRA issues and Continuous Build failures are sent to this list. XWiki developers must be subscribed to this list to follow what's going on.
22 * **[[security AT xwiki.org>>http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/security]]**: For discussions about security issues. For reporting a security issue prefer using the [[issue tracker>>https://jira.xwiki.org]] (see [[Security Policy>>dev:Community.SecurityPolicy.WebHome]] for details).
23 * **[[infra AT xwiki.org>>http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/infra]]**: For discussing infrastructure issues.

26 The last 2 are private mailing lists for reading
27
28 * Anyone can write to these lists to report issues (no subscription needed)
29 * But unlike public mailing list above, these mailing lists are only accessible for core committers and some other trusted persons. Unregistered users can not read archives of this mailing list, because it might contain sensitive security details.
30 * If you want to contribute to discussions on these lists, start [[contributing>>Contributing]] and ask for permission by posting on the [[xwiki.org forum (in the ##Other## category)>>https://forum.xwiki.org/c/Other/1]] and explain why you need access. Committers will decide whether you will get access or not.

36 Before sending mails to any of the lists mentioned above you'll need to be subscribed to the list. Be very careful to send the mail with the email address you've used to subscribe or your mail won't make it to the list and will be rejected. You can register by clicking on the links above (you can also use these links for unsubscribing). Please also note that large emails (over 100K) will be rejected when sent to these lists.

50

53 ** [[users archives>>http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/]]

58 === I've subscribed but can't post ===

60 The most likely reason is that you're sending an email with a different email address than the one you've used to register. Use the same email address and it should work fine! You can manager your mailing list information using the [[Mailing list user interface>>http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo]].
