May First/People Link Lists and Feeds
May First/People Link has several email lists and RSS feeds to help you keep up-to-date on what is happening both politically and technically with the organization.
Common channels for members
Below is a description of the channels that we encourage all members to join.
- The All members list includes everyone with an email account on the May First/People Link servers. This list is neither opt-in or opt-out. You are simply on it if you have an account with us. This channel is used infrequently and to distribute critical information relating to the organization.
- The lowdown list is the newsletter of May First/People Link, with emails sent one or twice a month. All primary contacts are added to this list automatically, but may opt-out if they choose. Everyone with an account on May First/People Link (and non-members as well) are encouraged to join this list. Visit the archives.
- Messages are sent to the Service Advisories list (sometimes several times a day or as infrequently as once a month) whenever we are encountering a problem affecting a large number of users or when we are planning maintenance that will impact a large number of users. Recipients may choose which the server or collection of servers they would like to receive advisories for by choosing one or more "topics" when subscribing. Visit the archives or the archive prior to the move to a mailman email list.
Channels for info hungry
The channels below are part of our commitment to transparency, however, for most members these channels may be more transparency than you are interested in.
- Messages to the support team list are sent everytime someone posts or modifies a ticket in our support system. You can also access this information via RSS. Although you can view these messages via the mailman archive page it's much more convenient to use access this information here on the actual support web site.
- If you susbscribe to either Server email alerts or Server SMS alerts you will receive either an email or an SMS text message if a service or server goes down (and that server or service is not hosted on our email list server). SMS alerts are shorter and tailored for devices with limited characters per message. Archives are available for email alerts and sms alerts (although they should contain the same messages, formatted differently.
