I need to find an active Java mailing list, I have looked onto the GNU Java mailing list, to my surprise there had been not too much activity this month, it also focused on any GNU related Java - I'd really help me progress my Java ability, if I had an active, likeminded Java mailing list. Questions' that are not suited to Stackoverflow, or provide little benefit to any user that see's the question:

  • discussing a new API change;

  • best practices;

  • open source discussion;

  • trivia type questions on Java ArrayList boxining-unboxing;

  • Community atmosphere.

I also read Jon Skeets blog post about his previous Java/C# mailing lists examples - I did not catch any names, though I did they would be of benefit to me, if I had access to any of them.

Hi Lewis, we tend to discourage questions that have ambiguous answers. Everybody will end up just posting their favorite mailing list and that would not be a good fit for the Q&A format we are striving for on Programmers. Please familiarize yourself with the FAQ and post back with further questions or answers. Thank you. – maple_shaft♦ Oct 12 '12 at 2:04
@maple_shaft No worries. – Lewis Robbins Oct 12 '12 at 21:35
