Ciao Federico, I'm an old user, back to Lily in the last few months but I'm
still a beginner. I suppose I can try to help only new entries.

There're 800 users in their forums! I don't think there's much interest in open
source (music) projects in Italy, there were only 10-15 users in the old
audio/music ML. Hope I'm wrong but two months has passed from Federico's post
and we're only two italians talkin' about a ML. :-(

It's like it.gnu.org:
https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/create

There's an e-mail for contacts here:
http://it.gnu.org/cgi-bin/mailman/admin

I don't know if a subscription (here: http://it.gnu.org/ ) is necessary to
create a ML.
