[Openbts-discuss] slightly OT - new list for UMTS discussions

This is merely a historical archive of years 2008-2021, before the migration to mailman3.

Hi David,

Looks like a good idea.
I just want to say that it would be better to name the list just
"umts-discuss" if you aim at general discussion. This should decrease
confusion of newcomers.
