I'm even more worried now.  I just skimmed through the existing
lists.d.o bugs for mailing list migrations and it seems to me that our
request is very likely to be rejected.  This list is mostly bug
traffic, notifications from the PTS/dak and occasional discussions
among us as maintainers.  The lists.d.o policy states it has to be of
general usefulness and it should have a certain amount of active
subscribers.

Very soon we are going to get RC bugs for Maintainer: mail not
functioning when the mailing list stops working, so Eric/Gürkan, could
you please file a bug ASAP so at least we know for certain what is the
outcome?  It has to be done by the list admin(s).

We have to think about alternative solution(s) if our request is
rejected.  Savannah is not appropriate for such mailing-list-only
projects that are distro-specific.
