This is an interesting option, thanks for passing it along.  I'm not 
familiar with groups.io other than what I read clicking through their 
pages based on this mail.  Does anyone else on the list have firsthand 
experience with it?

On the plus side, it's clearly much more modern and flexible than 
SourceForge's mailman-based mailing lists.  On the neutral-to-minus side, 
it looks like the free plans rely on ad-based revenue (one of the common 
complaints about SourceForge mailing lists) and little is said about spam 
filtering (the second most common complaint).  And as Joshua points out 
there isn't an obvious path for transferring existing mailman-based 
lists/archives over (though maybe there's an inobvious path).

I can't recall whether this has come up in/around this thread, but there's 
a (rough) draft CHIP for a Chapel package manager here:

Comments and feedback welcome.
