Emailové konference/přehled
These are the mailing lists hosted by Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit organization in the state of California which operates Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikibooks, Wikidata, Wikiquote, Wikisource, Wikimedia Commons, Wikispecies, Wikinews, and Wikiversity, as well as many Wikimedia movement affiliates wikis, and a few other MediaWiki-based wikis.
A mailing list is like a shared email address: messages sent to that address are distributed to all members ("subscribers") of the list.
Except for lists marked "private", archives are available for online reading by anyone; posting to a list generally requires subscribing to it. The Mailman list overview page can be found at lists.wikimedia.org.
Many lists are also archived at mail-archive.com and markmail.org, which provide powerful search engines.
See the main Mailing lists page for more information on Wikimedia lists.
