Thanks for bringing this up.

IIRC the collab-maint replacement is (strictly) only for DDs and since
we have three non-DDs in the team, we should probably continue to use
a dedicated team for that.

Will do the conversion and create a "lynx-team" team on Salsa.

I'm sure, a lists.debian.org list would be overkill, but a migration
to the lists.alioth.d.o replacement server is probably easy.

I though wonder: Do we really need it? Doesn't lynx at packages.debian.org
suffice? Can we then use lynx at packages.debian.org in the Maintainer
field or would that cause an endless mail loop?

A quick grep revealed that quite some teams are using that already, so
I assume, there's no mail loop involved:

→ fgrep -h @packages.debian.org /var/lib/apt/lists/*Sources | sort -u
