Today a great many people were incorrectly subscribed today to
fedora-devel-list due to a terrible error on our part. 929 people in
total were subscribed by this unfortunate accident. In order to end
this grief, we have decided to unsubscribe all new subscribers of today
immediately after this message hits the list.
We deeply regret any inconvenience this may have caused.

Some who intended to subscribe today might be accidentally removed. So
please check on your subscription status tomorrow

That was nice and cryptic. If somebody wanted an explanation, they sure
didn't get it. Now can you please tell us what really happened and how you
intend to avoid something like that in the future?

We closed down some lists:
fedora-config-list
fedora-patches-list
fedora-tools-list
The users of these lists accidentally got assigned to fedora-devel-list.

Ah ok. I think the IT team misunderstood the mail I send to them to
close down these unused lists and redirect users to fedora-devel list. I
guess I should have been more explicit that I merely wanted a
announcement and a notice to future subscribers to discuss things in
fedora-devel list and not a mass resubscription.

Thank you both. Now it is clear.
