Description

The URL on the "Mailing Lists" page is now broken with the implementation of the new LFS web site. I would fix it, but am not sure what the proper URL should be.

How about the FAQ "Which List?"

Also a brief description of the mailing lists on the support page:

Sheesh, and to think all he had to do was add a URL to this bug so that it could be fixed.

Instead, a maze of possible clues.

Adding an explanation of lists here is not necessary. To do so would mean that the book has to change when the lists do. Only a pointer with a general statement the the user can choose for the web site should be necessary.

There were communication issues in the previous entries to this bug which have been resolved. Apparently, there is no page on the LFS website which affords the functionality the previous one did.

Justin has volunteered to create a replacement page. After this page is up, we can link to the new URL.

Thanks, Justin!

As URL (if I did this correctly) is the copied and slightly edited mailing list page from the old lfs website. I didn't notice anything out of date or missing, if so please let me know.

Added a new page to the BLFS website on "Getting Involved." Links to the mail page as well as the BLFS edguide.

Marking FIXED for now, but after the web site regenerates, reopen if there are further problems.
