  "body": "\u003cp\u003eTL;DR: Mailman 3 upgrade happened on November 4th, starting at 14:00\nUTC, and ending around 21:00 UTC. Report issues on GitLab.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs mentioned in early October, we\u0026rsquo;re in the process of upgrading our\nmain mail server, which includes upgrading to the shiny new Mailman 3\nplatform. This will involve short per-list outage as each migrates\nover to the new server. It\u0026rsquo;s unclear how long the maintenance will\nlast, but assume mailing lists will be disrupted all day, although\neach migration should only take a couple of minutes each.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have, right now, a prototype mailman 3 server available at:\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://lists-01.torproject.org/\"\u003ehttps://lists-01.torproject.org/\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TPA mailing list has been succesfully migrated already and next\nweek, I\u0026rsquo;ll start migrating the other mailing lists (including this\none!).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe warned that Mailman 3 is a significant upgrade from Mailman 2. There\nare some great things (like unified authentication), and some less great\nthings (like a more complex design and \u0026ldquo;shinier\u0026rdquo; web interface that\nmight not be everyone\u0026rsquo;s taste).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a reminder, we\u0026rsquo;re doing this upgrade a little rushed because the main\nmail server is now unsupported for security upgrades. See the details of\nthe proposal here:\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/policy/tpa-rfc-71-emergency-email-deployments-round-2\"\u003ehttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/policy/tpa-rfc-71-emergency-email-deployments-round-2\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026hellip; with the upgrade work being tracked in this issue:\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/issues/40471\"\u003ehttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/issues/40471\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n",
