Mailing lists

You can contact and participate in the Apache CMDA community through the mailing lists.

The main mailing lists are public. We suggest that all CMDA users join the users@CMDA list – this allows us to notify you of any critical issues or upcoming changes and allows you to have a say in the future development of CMDA. Anyone using the CMDA APIs in their own code would be well advised to join both dev@CMDA and users@CMDA. The private mailing list is only for information that should not be made public.
