Is there some compelling reason why the mailing list simply cannot be
moved to another provider?  IMHO your users and fellow developers
shouldn't have to do anything other than change the submission
address.

I respect your desire to power the communication platform with free
software (and I'm sure this can still be done with Mailman or
whatever), but keep in mind the practical reality of our time, where
most of us these days are now comfortably using Webmail or or POP/IMAP
against a remote server that's not under the user's control and have
no desire to implement yet another communication conduit.

Thanks,
