Hi @bpilorget.

I just realized that all the links on the mail addresses in http://opendreamkit.org/follow/ point to the http://listes.services.cnrs.fr/ url, rather than being a mailto: link.

Is this intended? It doesn't look very practical for someone wanting to write to those adresses.

Thanks for the suggestion, I had not thought about that. Good point. Instead we could have something like:

    [XXX@opendreamkit.org](mailto:XXX@opendreamkit.org)([list info](http://....XXX))

@bpilorget: do you mind implementing it?

If you want to be fancy and learn a bit of yaml/..., you could add a
list of mailing lists to the metadata section on top of the page, and
have this be built automatically. You can have a look at the partners
page for an example.

Cheers,

Nicolas

​I think XXX@opendreamkit.org generates automatically the mailto: link.
(Not tested, though).​

​Sounds a bit like overengineering to me.​

Hi,

These links were done on purpose, because the links are both intended to ODK participants & administration services, and to people out of the project wishing to contact us.
It seemed easier and clearer to me to just put those links, keeping in mind anyone can copy paste the addresses as they wish.
If you wish I can withdraw the links but I don't think either that overengineering these links would do much good considering the time it would imply.
