We are currently in the progress of moving julia-dev from Google Groups to
a Discourse forum/mailing-list powered by Discourse.
For the reasons behind this move, please see the the statement of intent on
julia-users. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/julia-users/Ov1J6MOVly0

We decided to move julia-dev first because of the smaller mail throughput
and to see if we as a community are happy with the features Discourse
offers.
The new web address is http://discourse.julialang.org/c/dev.

The timeline for the move is as follows:

- Discourse is available from now on and we encourage everybody to post
new topics there.
- On November 8th, 2016, julia-dev will be set to read-only mode.
- We are not doing an automated migration, because we want to give
people the choice of opt-in; as such, we won't move over previous content
or previous accounts.

A common concern is whether or not you have to use Discourse as a forum or
if you can still participate purely through e-mails.
The short answer to that is that yes, you can! For the long answer head
over to http://discourse.julialang.org/t/discourse-as-a-mailing-list for a
description on how to set it up.

If you have any concerns about this move please chime in either here or
