Lua Mailing list

subscribe · unsubscribe · statistics · search archive

There is an active and friendly mailing list for discussing Lua called lua-l. Everyone is welcome to join and discuss the language, its uses, and its implementation. The list has been in continuous operation for over 12 years now and is one of the focal points of the Lua community; it has over 1800 subscribers from all over the world, including several Lua experts and the Lua team. Over 55000 messages have been posted since the list was created in Feb 1997. All messages sent to the list are archived. You can read and search the archives at Conectiva, lua-users.org, MARC, and Gmane. [RSS]

Subscribing

You must subscribe to the list before posting. You can only post from the address you have subscribed. Postings from an unsubscribed address will be rejected automatically. If you want to post from a different address, subscribe again using that address and turn off delivery for it.

Netiquette

Please be careful when replying to a message posted to the list, because your reply will be sent to the whole list, instead of just to the author. Please take a moment and read some useful information on mailing list netiquette. An important part of netiquette is learning how to quote previous posts and also how to ask questions and how to report bugs effectively. For background information on netiquette, see RFC1855.

Last, but not least, please send only plain text messages to the list. Avoid HTML messages and multipart/alternative MIME messages (some mail programs send HTML versions of your messages by default; you may not even be aware that you are sending HTML messages, so learn how to turn this off). Send attachments only when they are small; otherwise put them in a web site and post the URL instead. Messages with large attachments will be rejected automatically.
