==Mailing Lists==
The full list of mailing lists is at '''http://lists.sugarlabs.org'''. Sometimes they multiply when one isn't watching.
A web-view of mailing lists in a fourm-like interface can be found at [http://n2.nabble.com/SugarLabs-f1511649.html Nabble]. Keep in mind that using Nabble has the following limitations:
* Nabble does not support posting to more than one mailing list at a time (cross-posting)
* Nabble does not index all sugar lists
* The authoritive record is on lists.sugarlabs.org

===Starting a new list===
The best way to start a new mailing list is to begin a discussion on a related list that already exists, and once the discussion becomes active, to ask for a separate list for that topic or that sort of traffic.
When you have a critical mass of people regularly talking about the same topic, request a mailing list by emailing the following information to IAEP list:
# The name you want for your mailing list, with alternative names if the first one is taken
# A description of the list, its purpose, and why it's needed (being able to say "we've been talking on this other list for a while, and the discussion has grown too big - see these archive links" is helpful)
# The name/email of the list admin, and of at least one other moderator (minimum one admin and one moderator)
# At least 10 names/emails of people who want to be the initial subscribers
