Hi,

I just signed up to this list and then saw that the last archive is for
March 2014. Is this just because it is a low volume list, or has it been
superceded?

Oh, and I just got a "Server not found" at http://advocacy.python.org/
so maybe things are being changed over to the new website?

The list is low volume, and under-used.

I?m not sure what advocacy.python.org is. Was that mentioned in the list signup email?

I was too hasty: I've found it now. It is on this page:
https://www.python.org/psf/volunteer/
The link is at the end of the first "Example Tasks" task.

advocacy.python.org was a web site set up by Jeff Rush.  I think it
was superseded by the redesign, so that link can be removed.  (Or
maybe its server just needs to be restarted or something?)
