Nothing. I expected that the admins would register it.

There's another problem: I first tried to subscribe to
mirrors-announce, which seems to be the apropriate list, but it
failed. I've just sent this message to the owners:

To: mirrors-announce-request at ml.mageia.org
Subject: no password received

I subscribed to this list by visiting
https://ml.mageia.org/wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi/ticket/99256207104490

I got "confirmation" of subscription by this message:

mirrors-announce-request at ml.mageia.org (mirrors-announce-request at ml.mageia.org) wrote on 28 April 2011 23:35:

However I received no password, so I cannot post nor change my
settings.

Please fix this.
