Thanks a lot for your quick work!

The CVS works fine -- will there a mail be automatically sent to the
groff-commit list if a `commit' has been done?

BTW, until now there wasn't a groff-commit mailing list archive -- I
think it isn't necessary.  How are other *-commit lists handled?

Since my old password no longer works, I assume that I shall send a
mail to the list, asking all people to click the `password reminder'
button to receive new passwords, right?  Or is it sufficient to wait
until a new password reminder email is sent? -- since Sept. 1st is
coming soon, this could be a good alternative.

To make the move of the mailing lists final I ask the FFII
administrators to set up a proper forward entry for address@hidden'.
No forward entry is necessary for address@hidden' since this
is a read-only list -- this has the additional advantage of reducing
spam.

In the next days I'll also populate the ftp.gnu.org server with the
remaining files which are still on /var/ftp/groff/...

Again, thank you all!
