<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label maillists*</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Specialist mailing lists</h3>
<p/>The previous question, &#8220;<a href="FAQ-gethelp.html">getting help</a>&#8221;, talked of
the two major forums in which (La)TeX, Metafont and MetaPost are
discussed; however, these aren&#8217;t the only ones available.
<p/>The TUG web site offers many mailing lists other than just
<code>texhax</code> via its 
<a href="http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo">mail list management page</a>.
<p/>The French national TeX user group, Gutenberg, offers a Metafont (and,
de facto, MetaPost) mailing list, <a href="mailto:metafont@ens.fr"><i>metafont@ens.fr</i></a>: subscribe to
it by sending a message
<blockquote>
<pre>
subscribe metafont
</pre>
</blockquote><p>
to <a href="mailto:sympa@ens.fr"><i>sympa@ens.fr</i></a>
<p/>(Note that there&#8217;s also a MetaPost-specific mailing list available via the
TUG list server; in fact there&#8217;s little danger of becoming confused
by subscribing to both.)
<p/>Announcements of TeX-related installations on the CTAN
archives are sent to the mailing list <code>ctan-ann</code>.  Subscribe
to the list via its <i>MailMan</i> web-site
<a href="https://lists.dante.de/mailman/listinfo/ctan-ann">https://lists.dante.de/mailman/listinfo/ctan-ann</a>; list archives
are available at the same address.  The list archives may also be
browsed via <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/ctan-ann@dante.de/">http://www.mail-archive.com/ctan-ann@dante.de/</a>, and
an RSS feed is also available:
