     <P>Mailing lists provide a way for developers and other interested parties to communicate with one another regarding aspects of a project, and to receive project announcements. In general, the way mailing lists work depends upon the type of project:
<ul>
<li>      Open source project mailing lists are available to any subscriber, but may&nbsp;be granted limited membership by the project owners.
<p></p>
<li>Proprietary project mailing lists are always 
      private; only approved subscribers, usually project members, may join.</li>                  
</ul>

Development projects on this site include one or more of the following mailing lists:

    <BLOCKQUOTE>
