History

The agreed-upon death of the old Linux-680x0 list at vger.rutgers.edu in late 1995 brought about the renaming of the Atarix list at phil.uni-sb.de to linux-m68k. Now that Linux/m68k has its own domain, the preferred address is lists.linux-m68k.org, but it is still hosted at Saarbrucken.

Policy

Please note that general user questions are more appropriate for the newsgroups. The linux-m68k mailing list is intended for kernel and system development.

Any questions about this mailing list can be directed to Benni Lorenz, linux-m68k-owner@lists.linux-m68k.org.

To subscribe: send electronic mail to linux-m68k-request@lists.linux-m68k.org with the line "subscribe linux-m68k" in the message body. [Warning: traffic is often as high as 50 messages per day.]
To subscribe to a daily summary of the traffic of the mailing list (a largeish mail containing all the individual messages of the day, in the standard digest format): send electronic mail to linux-m68k-digest-request@lists.linux-m68k.org with the line "subscribe linux-m68k-digest" in the message body.
To send a message to everyone on the list: send electronic mail to linux-m68k@lists.linux-m68k.org.
Archives of the linux-m68k list and the previous list at linux-680x0@vger.rutgers.edu are available courtesy of Julian Coleman's Atari server at the University of Newcastle. [United Kingdom]
You can also download some old daily message digests from ftp.phil.uni-sb.de. [Germany]
You can access the list (and several other Linux-related lists) from the news server on sunsite.auc.dk as sunsite.linux.m68k (Posting is allowed). If your browser manufacturer can't read RFC's (i.e. its name rhymes with Microsoft or Netscape), this link may work instead.

General Linux lists

If you are interested in general (or i386) Linux development, I recommend the LinuxHQ mailing list archives. Spot the posts from your favorite Linux/m68k developers in linux-gcc and linux-kernel.
