# Apache HTTP Server Mailing Lists #
The following mailing lists relate to the Apache HTTP Server project. Users
should consider subscribing to the [Announcements](#http-announce) or [User
Support](#http-users) mailing lists. Other lists are for people interested
in helping with the development and debugging of the server.
List archives are available in [the Apache
Mail Archives](https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@httpd.apache.org).
- [Apache Server Announcements](#http-announce)
- [User Support and Discussion](#http-users)
- [Apache HTTP Server Development Main Discussion List](#http-dev)
- [Apache HTTP Server Bug Reports List](#http-bugdb)
- [Source Change Reports](#http-cvs)

**If you are not subscribed to one of these lists, your messages will go
into moderation before being approved for the list. This is a spam
prevention measure.**
# Apache Server Announcements {#http-announce}
The `announce@httpd.apache.org` mailing list is used to announce major
releases and other important information about the Apache HTTP Server
project. Messages are posted only by the project; there is no
discussion.

# User Support and Discussion {#http-users}
The lists and discussion groups listed here are the **only** place that
configuration and how-to questions belong, ever. Every day, users become
frustrated, not with Apache, but with how nobody will help them understand
how to get started. 95% of the time, it's not for lack of helpers, but for
lack of effort and well stated questions.
Before you go further, please read Eric S. Raymond and Rick Moen's
explanation of ["How To Ask Questions The Smart
Way"](http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html). If you follow
their advice, you will discover that these forums have dozens of helpers
ready to provide you with guidance on using the Apache HTTP Server! **Note:
Do not send your Apache questions to Eric or Rick!**
The **Apache HTTP Server Users Mailing List** is described on a
[separate page](userslist.html).
# Apache HTTP Server Development Main Discussion List {#http-dev}
The `dev@httpd.apache.org` mailing list is used for discussions about the
actual development of the server. All httpd candidates for release are
announced to this list prior to acceptance. Subscribers to this list are
encouraged to 'test-drive' these candidates just before they're generally
released, and provide their feedback in a [vote] thread. Note these
candidates are **NOT** yet released, and should not be carried on
announcement channels, until the testing is complete and they have been
voted as released on the dev@ list.
Configuration and support questions should be addressed to a [user support
group](#http-users). This list is only for discussion of changes to the
source code and related issues. Other questions are likely to be ignored.

# Apache HTTP Server Bug Reports List {#http-bugdb}
This is the mailing list to which all activity in the [problem report
database](http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/) is logged. If you are a
member of this list, you will receive a message each time a report is added
or modified.
If you take ownership of bug by assigning it to yourself, please remember

receive updates.

# Source Change Reports {#http-cvs}
This mailing list is used to notify developers and other interested parties
of changes applied to the master Subversion repository. As changes are
applied, Subversion log messages are sent to all subscribers. (The list
name is an artifact of the fact that we used to use CVS.)
