New X.Org mailing lists are created: xorg-arch and xorg-foundation

Two new mailing lists have recently been created for the X.Org
project, on the lists.freedesktop.org mailman server:

X.Org Architecture Board discussion
     xorg-arch at lists.freedesktop.org

General (non-technical) X.Org Foundation discussion
     xorg-foundation at lists.freedesktop.org

These lists were recently created on freedesktop.org in order
to migrate the xorg_arch, and xorg_foundation mailing lists
hosted at x.org by TOG to a modern GNU mailman setup which is
widely used by most OSS projects.

This change should make it easier for people to subscribe and
participate in the X.Org Architecture Board and Foundation
mailing lists using the familiar GNU mailman mailing list
interface widely used by the majority of mailing lists in the
open source landscape.

Additionally, it should make it much easier for the lists to
be maintained directly by X.Org project members, and allow any
administration overhead to be shared and/or delegated as
necessary.

Generally speaking, these lists are now in a much more familiar
format, and should now be much more accessible to developers and
others in the community.

All X.Org developers, members of the architecture board, and
other interested parties, should consider subscribing to the new
mailing lists at their earliest convenience, by clicking on the
following URLs, and following the standard GNU mailman
instructions:
