SECURITY@XENPROJECT.ORG

Mailing list
This e-mail alias is intended for reporting security vulnerabilities in Xen Project software (this also covers the situation where an existing published codebase is retrospectively found to be a security fix). List membership is restricted to members of the Xen Project Security Response Team and thus invite only and obviously, there is no public archive. For more information on how the Xen Project handles security vulnerabilities, see the Xen Security Problem Response Process.

PRIVATE@

Mailing list
This list is for maintainers of all Xen teams, and key developers that have been invited by maintainers. This list is intended to be used only when privacy implications or similar prevent usage of a public list. Example usage may be to let other community members know of absences (due to holidays, maternity/ paternity leave, etc.) and to arrange cover. Another example may be to ask other team members for advice on how to respond to a difficult situation in the community. Any conversations that should have been started on a public list, will be forwarded to an appropriate public list. This list is an invite-only list and is not archived. Community members can subscribe, but approval in line with Mailing List Conventions is required.

PUBLICITY@

Mailing list
This is a list to coordinate content for the Xen Project blog, articles in the open source and Linux press, other media, press activities, to coordinate attendance and submissions for open source and industry events and anything else to promote the Xen Project. The list is open for people in the community who care about promoting the Xen Project. The list is also archived. To join, please email the Community Manager.
