I'm pretty certain Jef Spaleta, one of the founders of the Robotics SIG,
did not intend to unsubscribe. Since it's a large number of bounces, can
we get some more info on that? Should I re-subscribe the addresses and
let mailman send a notification, so that users can unsubscribe if they
want to?
I'm just concerned about the large number at the same time, that looks
like a problem on the mailman side.
If you think the bounces were in error, then, yes, resub them.
It's easy to do it en-masse in the mailman interface.
