I suggest not doing so.  There's quite a bit of dead-wood addresses
there I think.

Ah, OK.  I'll leave it until tomorrow then, since Sander's crashed
anyway by now. ;)

I'm sure we could simply have the new list be "subscribed" to the old
list. This would be relatively easy to do.

For -dev I took care of GMANE but forgot MARC (as I use only the first). 
Does anybody know if they are up-to-date? (I can't check currently.) 

Getting the feed from to lists simultaniously is no problem for GMANE; I'll 
ping Lars when the new list is up.

Cheers,
Malte

This is a separate issue, but I'd request that the URL/link in the
spamassassin.org web page be updated to one/both of the mailing list
archives that work, and are current, if this hasn't already been done.
The archivers need to be advised as well.

You also might want to do a two-phase commit kind of thing, where you
give people a week to sign up before going live with the new list.
Also, might be good if you can have the Sourceforge folks forward
old SA-Talk messages to the new list for a month/two.
