Hi, I would like to create a mailing list for Portuguese speaking Haskell programmers. I tried checking haskell.org mailing lists page, but the only contact e-mail I see is 'mailman@haskell.org', and a message sent to that address is replied with an automatic message saying I'm not authorized to use it. Is there someone I could contact about that? Thanks, Maurício

I would like to create a mailing list for Portuguese speaking Haskell programmers. I tried checking haskell.org mailing lists page, but the only contact e-mail I see is 'mailman@haskell.org', and a message sent to that address is replied with an automatic message saying I'm not authorized to use it.
Is there someone I could contact about that?
According to "Mailing lists - HaskellWiki" (see http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Mailing_lists),
Any problems with haskell or haskell-cafe should be reported to haskell-admin@haskell.org, and any problems with haskell-beginners should be reported to DekuDekuplex@Yahoo.com.
In addition, if you wish to suggest a new mailing list for Haskell, I would suggest first posting a message suggesting this idea on the Haskell mailing list (see "Haskell Info Page" at http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell), and then moving the topic after the first few posting rounds to the Haskell-Cafe mailing list (this list). Furthermore, there is a list of haskell.org mailing lists at the following site: haskell.org Mailing Lists http://haskell.org/mailman/listinfo It may help to notice that one of the mailing lists listed at the above-mentioned site is the following one for French readers: Haskell-fr Info Page http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-fr You may wish to use the existence of this list as a basis for arguing that a Portuguese mailing list should be created. Alternatively, there is the option of creating a Haskell-related mailing list outside of haskell.org, such as the following: haskell-art Info Page http://lists.lurk.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-art Hope this helps. -- Benjamin L.

Benjamin,
I would like to create a mailing list for Portuguese speaking Haskell programmers. (...)
According to "Mailing lists - HaskellWiki" (see http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Mailing_lists),
Thanks for your comprehensive reports. However, I did took all measures you sugested.
"Any problems with haskell or haskell-cafe should be reported to haskell-admin@haskell.org," (...)
OK. Sent also to haskell-admin. I misunderstood that address was only for problems, sorry for that.
In addition, if you wish to suggest a new mailing list for Haskell, I would suggest first posting a message suggesting this idea (...)

I think that is a good point. I said that in my message to the first address I found. My sugestion was to name the list 'haskell-pt', and the description could be "Lista de discussão para os falantes da língua portuguesa" (in Portuguese) or "Mailing list for Portuguese speakers all over the world" (in English, correct if necessary).
Alternatively, there is the option of creating a Haskell-related mailing list outside of haskell.org, such as the following:
I thought about that. But there are hundreds of millions of Portuguese speaking people, and probably a few thousands Haskell programmers, maybe 5 or 10 universities using it for undergraduate teaching, so I thought it would not be fair that I would be the list owner. I may not be doing Haskell in a few months, or die in a car accident, who knows? :) Best, Maurício
