I personally believe we need to revive the plan to move the lists to procmail.org and smartlist.org.
Could you please let me know, who were the members of the group planning this. I saw that smartlist.org is only registered and not used. I would be willing to host this domain, set up the smartlist list (running with SL!) and the searchable web archive.
I could be up and running within 1-2 weeks. I could also set up CVS for the SL package.
I was mistaken in my recollection that we (the procmail/SmartLis community) had registered both names. Smartlist.org is not related to our favorite MLM, a situation I have verified by discussion with its owner.
The *actual* previous plan was (I *now* believe) to move the all of the procmail/SmartList lists to procmail.org. So far, all that appears to have happened is that
procmail-users@procmail.org
and
smartlist-users@procmail.org
currently act as forwarding aliases to the RWTH-Aachen lists.
I don't currently recall where the discussion took place; it may have been on smartlist@aachen, on smartist-dev@procmail (or on the corresponding procmail lists) or somewhere else entirely. That part of my memory, err...., mail archive is temporarily inaccessible because I needed the disk space for something else.
I, too, could host the actual mailing lists or oversee them on a remote host (perhaps as part of a team). However, I do not propose or even support separation of SmartList development from procmail development; I believe the CVS idea will need approval from Philip Guenther (current chief procmail/smartlist developer) and/or SRB (our founder and chief developer emeritus :-))

I don't want to seperate development. I only made this proposal because there is not much happening to say at least. If someone else could run the smartlist/procmail lists (not on Mailman!) and provide some facilities which are helpful for developing and promoting open software I would be happy.

The Zsh Development Group has had a pretty good experience with using SourceForge (www.sourceforge.net) for CVS access. SourceForge doesn't run the zsh mailing lists, though.

Please, write to all lists (procmail and smartlist related) when move had done.
