<ul></ul><p>Just noting that the stats are available here, before I think more about ways to improve communication:</p>

<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>New</i> to <i>In Progress</i></li></ul><p>Can you extract a summary of the listing? An easy overview would be good, parsing the table can be tedious if at-a-glance is required ;-)</p> Infrastructure - Task #2679: mailing list statisticshttps://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/2679?journal_id=164142019-03-17T14:01:51ZMike Saundersmike.saunders@documentfoundation.org
<ul></ul><p>So here's a way to make a more readable summary. Take the data from an email - eg <a class="external" href="https://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/moderators/msg00962.html">https://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/moderators/msg00962.html</a> - and save it as mailing_lists.txt. Then run this command:</p>
<p><code>cat mailing_lists.txt | cut -d " " -f 1,5 | sort -k 2 -nr</code></p>
<p>This removes all info apart from the list name and total subscribers, then sorts (reverse order), to show the most popular lists. So the results are like this:</p>
<pre><code><a class="email" href="mailto:announce@documentfoundation.org">announce@documentfoundation.org</a> 4976<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:users@global.libreoffice.org">users@global.libreoffice.org</a> 1525<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:users@fr.libreoffice.org">users@fr.libreoffice.org</a> 637<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:announce@de.libreoffice.org">announce@de.libreoffice.org</a> 630<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:discuss@documentfoundation.org">discuss@documentfoundation.org</a> 563<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:nyhedsbrev@da.libreoffice.org">nyhedsbrev@da.libreoffice.org</a> 528<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:users@de.libreoffice.org">users@de.libreoffice.org</a> 512<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:l10n@global.libreoffice.org">l10n@global.libreoffice.org</a> 433<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:usuarios@pt-br.libreoffice.org">usuarios@pt-br.libreoffice.org</a> 392<br /><a class="email" href="mailto:users@es.libreoffice.org">users@es.libreoffice.org</a> 369<br />...</code></pre>
<p>I'll post the full list on marketing-priv@ at the start of every month. Or shall we share this more openly, eg on the regular marketing list?</p> Infrastructure - Task #2679: mailing list statisticshttps://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/2679?journal_id=171012019-07-16T13:13:30ZFlorian Effenbergerfloeff@documentfoundation.org

<p>This month, I've posted on the public marketing list instead.</p>

<p>Yes, it's all working fine, and done every month. No particular feedback to give - the stats could be useful, of course, as we discuss alternative communication platforms.</p> Infrastructure - Task #2679: mailing list statisticshttps://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/2679?journal_id=201952020-08-05T07:47:36ZFlorian Effenbergerfloeff@documentfoundation.org
