Mailing list migration tool #7009

Closed cblecker closed 1 year ago

cblecker commented 1 year ago

Describe the issue

SIGs that wish to migrate their mailing list need a way to do so in an automated way.

The groups tool (https://git.k8s.io/k8s.io/groups) can sort of do this, but it requires the entire mailing list's membership to be published in git. It's also easily rate limited when doing the number of calls required.

I had previously hacked up a version of this tool to migrate the kubernetes dev mailing list, but it was fragile, hacky, and only functioned on my local system. We really need a safer, fully functional tool to be able to do this en masse.

Following up from the discussion on the k8s Slack (thread) -

Earlier, we had a limitation in exporting the list of members from a mailing list, if it exceeded a certain size. However, recently, @mrbobbytables was able to do a successful export of the contribex ML members list (PSA: here) (which was not the case before, due to the above stated limitation)

Taking the migration of the SIG Contribex Mailing List as a positive test, we don't need a tool for migration atm, but will reconsider if a need arises in the future.

Closing the issue. Thanks!
