Folks,
I've belatedly realized that it's going to be a bit of a headache to
implement the old cctalk/cctech crossposting duality under the new
version of mailman.
I seem to recall a discussion about retiring the cctech list and just
continuing with cctalk, and that the consensus was in favor of that.
I'll call this message a consent agenda indicating that I plan to do
that, unless there's loud outcry.

I’m fine with that. I never cared for the duality.

Hi Dennis,
That makes complete sense - All of my cc* related emails get forwarded into
a single folder here anyway.

Are the old posts all archived and searchable? I have a gap from 2016
through 2022, and before that it is complete back to Mar 29, 2007 (I
think it is complete).
Merging makes sense to me.

I think I have cctech back to 2005 for import into the new mailman web
system. I also have the mailman2 pipermail archives that go back to
2014.
I have cctalk archives back to the beginning in 1998? to load, and the
pipermail back to 2014.
The pipermail archives are online now. The stuff to load still requires
some massaging to get it to load cleanly. Since it's somewhere north of
400,000 messages, and I'm not getting diagnostics about _why_ some
messages aren't getting loaded, it's taking some time to finish the
cleanup.

I'm good with the duality going away. I see in a day longer ago that
the split made sense and also was more useful.
I don't think I've seen the cctech separate out much that can't be
located and followed anyway.
Appreciate all the efforts. I'll look at my archives. I think Jay had
all I had the he did not. I also have a very long archive composed of
emails and not from scraping the archives off the web page, though I
don't know that is much use.
thanks

Will posts to cctech alias to cctalk if I forget?

Folks,
I've migrated all of the cctech subscribers to cctalk, and removed the
cctech list. I've tried to arrange that mail sent to cctech gets
forwarded to cctalk, but that may require a bit of tuning.
I do still have the various posting archives which will make an
appearance in the (hopefully) near future.
In the process of retiring cctech, I preserved digest vs individual
message subscription settings, but may have inadvertently altered the
_form_ of digest you receive. If you want to change this, or any other,
subscription setting, you should be able to visit:
https://classiccmp.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/cctalk.classiccmp.org/
and log in to fiddle with your settings. Old list passwords did not
port over, so on the first visit you'll probably have to use the "sign
up" link top right to create a username and password to use to get at
your subscriptions.
