Description
Hello SAC,
This is a request to migrate the Valencia mailing list(1) to discourse. I've already created the Discourse category(2) without further customization.
I can help with the process if you point me to documentation to follow, otherwise happy to answer any further questions.
Thanks!

For the valencia category:
Will create a valencia group for new post creators.
So the security settings for the category will be
- everyone: see, reply
- valencia: see, reply, create

Had to delete the one that you created, I think it has to be under no category for the import, (have to double check that statement on staging)
The category has been created
TODO: deactivate the mailing list after last informative mail sent.
@jsanz
Please let me know when you did the following:
Send a last mail to the Valencia mailing list that goes more or less like:

Hello All,
We decided it would be better for everyone still interested in being on this mailing list to log in or register on their own to discourse.osgeo.org.
- If you have an OSGeo account already, it is preferable to use with LDAP.
- You can also log in with your Github account if you have one as detailed in
welcome message.
- Finally there is an option to register using your email.
See instructions here: https://discourse.osgeo.org/t/welcome-to-osgeo/5
If you want an LDAP account, go to
https://id.osgeo.org/ldap/create
You can email PUT NAME HERE/email to ask for the mantra code, with following
- Use the email registered on the mailing list
- subject: "Mantra Code for Valencia mailist"
- Body: link to mail on the Valencia mailing list that used your email
Details of what you need to do to continue to email the mailing list is listed here:
The Valencia discourse mailing list: https://discourse.osgeo.org/c/geoinquietos/valencia/40
Want to create a new topic? https://discourse.osgeo.org/g/valencia
The list of the old archives will still be kept here - https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/valencia/
If you have questions feel free to ask in discourse.
Thanks,

@jsanz
Under your profile, add any email aliases that you have used in past to send mail to OSGeo mailing lists.
There is a staged Jorge_Sanz1 that needs to be merged to your account

Thanks @cvvergara for the assistance, this is much appreciated.
I've merged my two staged accounts into my main account without issues.
I've sent a migration message to the mailing list(1) and discourse(2) with the instructions suggested. And I can provide the mantra word for anyone that need it.
I'll leave a week to give folks the opportunity to answer the mailing list if they need assistance. After that I'll proceed setting the list as read-only. I'll close that ticket then with last details unless you instruct me differently.
Thanks again!
