3. Mailing List

We provide a mailing list for GSAS-II users to ask questions and more importantly, so that we can reach users with news about GSAS-II. Please do subscribe. The level of traffic on this list is pretty low (typically 30-60 e-mails/year); Bob and I usually reply to directly to senders, unless the answer will be valuable to many people. There is a searchable mailing list archive (messages prior to 2018 are here. There is also an archive by the APS here, which allows mass downloading of messages, but not searching.

Bug reports can be posted on this list, but we would greatly prefer them posted on the GitHub Issues Tracker, but please see notes on bug reporting before posting.

3.1. Subscribing

To subscribe, use this link or send an e-mail to GSAS-II-request@mailman.aps.anl.gov. Set the subject as “Subscribe” (or “Subscribe <password>” where <password> is your preference for a mailing list login password). You can also use “Help” as the subject to get a list of options

3.2. Using the list

You must subscribe with the address you use to send messages. Send questions or problems, but do not attach large files. The mailing list is not a good way to report bugs, since you will need to provide files needed to reproduce the bug. See reporting bugs for how to report bugs. That is also the best place to request new features.
