Hi all,
in the "official" registry in
  https://rosalind.home.xs4all.nl/nocemreg/nocemreg.html
As the registry is no longer maintained, what would you think of
re-copying elsewhere and updating the useful information it contains?
Hi all,
Nowadays, are there other NoCeM senders than Aioe and Bleachbot?
I have of course a simple suggestion of using the Wiki provided by
Github as part of the INN project. Unless a better space exists? (There
is no central web site for Usenet...)

Just download the entire site and put it on <https://firebase.google.com/docs/hosting>. It's a free service and you
can use a custom domain or custom sub-domain. Let me know if you want
help on that. I can create a site for you but users here need to make suggestions as to what goes into it.

I issue NoCeM messages covering the rocksolid.* hierarchy. I only post
them to rocksolid.spam, as I initially set it up to keep my own sites
clean. If others wish to act on the messages, feel free to do so.

The only question would be for Adri (nl-cancel@a3.xs4all) whose key is
still a PGP-2 key, now unsupported in modern versions of GnuPG.
Does anyone know whether he would still send NoCeM notices?
So maybe we could create <https://internetnews.github.io/usenet/>
(instead of "wiki", so that it hints at a wider scope than InterNetNews)
and then as you suggest activate GitHub Pages to publish from it.

Thanks for the pointer.
Do you have an entry like what is present in

I'll work on this soon, thanks for the links.
Where is the proper place to send this info once I have compiled it?
Would it be to Rosalind?

Another good news! I've just received an answer from Adri (from another e-mail I found, thanks Google!).
He confirms he won't be sending any NoCeM notices any more.
So normally Rosalind will remove his entry from the Registry next month.
And I'll also remove from the perl-nocem documentation the wording that
using an old gpg1 implementation is needed. All the current issuers
have modern keys, so we're good with both GnuPG 1.x and 2.x.
Hi Russ,
I have of course a simple suggestion of using the Wiki provided by
Github as part of the INN project. Unless a better space exists? (There >>> is no central web site for Usenet...)
Using GitHub Pages for this sort of thing is very easy and has the
advantage of being easily portable to some other site should something
happen to GitHub, since the underlying source is just a repository of
Markdown files. It also makes it easy to add more maintainers and hand
over maintenance as necessary. Then updates can be easily accepted from
anyone via pull requests.
My suggestion (and this is probably what you were already planning) would
be to create a separate repository under the InterNetNews organization in
GitHub. (This does tie it to the InterNetNews name even though it's
arguably more general, but oh well.)Â If you created a repository named
wiki, the resulting generated web page via GitHub Pages would be
<https://internetnews.github.io/wiki/>, which sounds reasonable.
It was not what I had in mind (using the simple Wiki feature inside for instance a new "usenet" repository, in the Wiki tab like we have Issues,
Pull requests, etc.) but yes thanks for recalling the GitHub Pages facility. It would indeed be more efficient.
So maybe we could create <https://internetnews.github.io/usenet/>
(instead of "wiki", so that it hints at a wider scope than InterNetNews)
and then as you suggest activate GitHub Pages to publish from it.
