Mailing list

These mailing lists are operated for sharing information amongst developers and users. Some of the lists are linked to the online forums.

From 2011/05/01, the old mailing list (openrtm-users@m.aist.go.jp) has been removed from the AIST mail server and a new mailing list has been started. User accounts on openrtm-users@m.aist.go.jp at the end of April (2011/04/20) were automatically moved to the new mailing list (openrtm-users@openrtm.org).
