Reintroduce a mailing list

[raphw]

Hello everybody,

I was wondering if cglib is actively developed again? I tried to get in touch with somebody that is related to cglib about a year ago because I wrote some patches for the library. I am not sure if I still have them floating around because I did not find anybody who could apply them back then. Instead, I found the project dead (mailing list, no commits, etc.). Is there a new attempt to create a new mailing list? The last one was a collection of spam mail and I see it does not exist anymore even though it is still listed.

Is there a mailing list or any place to discuss the development of cglib? Since I found the project dead, I wrote another library which was originally an attempt to refactor cglib in order to support annotations. I learned a lot from
cglib but I believe the rewritten implementation has quite an edge on cglib's current state. However, the library is obviously not API-compatible to cglib.

Maybe we can merge some ideas of my library over to cglib, if you are interested in this? Or collaborate in any other context? I would love to code together with some people instead of merely coding for myself. If there was a mailing list, I would love to discuss these things with you guys.

cglib is basically feature complete at this point and is not being actively developed. I migrated it to github for two reasons:

1. to make it easier to do the occasional patch (for example, we'll probably need to do something to support new java8 features).
2. because sourceforge is a pain to use.

Having a communication channel with the committers would be great. Is it possible to create a new dev list on Google Groups?

I second that, so far we discuss on the issue tracker what pollutes the overview of things that remain to be done. As a matter of fact, let's discuss issues here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cglib I am more than happy to transfer ownership to anybody that is hosting this project if requested but on the shortrun, I see this as a better solution than continuing using the issue tracker.

Works me for. Submit a pull request to link to it in the README?
