Our CTO, Scott Stark doth not partake of the blog. Thus I will repeat the jist of his words here since I suppose there are those who don't subscribe to the jboss-development mailing list for the very reasons this change has been made.

 

We have made a number of changes to address the growing JBoss project set.

 

The cvs repository has been moved to anoncvs.forge.jboss.com to provide more reliable and resposive access for both anonymous access and comitter access. See http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=CVSRepository for the CVSROOT details.

 

The jboss.jira.com event mail messages have been moved from the jboss-development@lists.sourceforge.net list in favor of a new jboss-jira@lists.sourceforge.net list. See the http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-jira page to subscribe to jboss project jira events.

 

The developer forums postings have been removed from the jboss-development@lists.sourceforge.net list in favor of a new jboss-dev-forums@lists.sourceforge.net. See the http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-dev-forums page to subscribe to all dev forum postings.

 

The jboss-development@lists.sourceforge.net is now for free-form cross-project jboss discussion and automated build error messages. All committers should be subscribed to this list for general development issue discussion and notification of build errors.

So now we have a place for discussing larger project issues and those who find having email copies of the forum posts useful can have that too.

For those who prefer to use aggregators, you can also still get RSS feeds of forums by replacing the forum's number in this link (where 186 is the number for the JBoss Mail Server forum). Presently there is a bug where the posts don't always come out in the order that you'd expect (at least not in firefox).
