The GCN Circulars transition from the legacy GCN Classic service to the new GCN has been completed.  From today onward, the modernized GCN Circulars experience will be part of the new GCN web site at https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars.

You are now able to:
- Browse and search Circulars in our all-new archive.
- Sign up for and manage your own email subscriptions.
- Enroll yourself and your colleagues to submit Circulars with arXiv-style peer endorsements for new contributors.
- Submit Circulars with our new Web form, or continue to submit by email.

As a part of the transition:
- Your settings have been transferred automatically, if you used Circulars previously.
- You will continue to receive Circulars, if you received them previously.
- You will still be able to submit Circulars from the same email addresses, if you submitted them previously.
- Emails from Circulars will come from a new address, no-reply@gcn.nasa.gov.
- We will encourage you to submit Circulars to the new address circulars@gcn.nasa.gov, but we will still support the old address gcncirc@capella2.gsfc.nasa.gov.
- The new archive, https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars, will include all past Circulars. We have frozen the old archive, https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3Not found
