I would like to offer the use of https://discuss.scientific-python.org.  I 
would be happy to handle email list migration, and have created the following 
two categories for NumPy discussion:

User discussion: https://discuss.scientific-python.org/c/user/numpy 
<https://discuss.scientific-python.org/c/user/numpy/19>
Contributor discussion: 
https://discuss.scientific-python.org/c/contributor/numpy 
<https://discuss.scientific-python.org/c/contributor/numpy/18>

We're happy to support this as part of the Scientific Python ecosystem grant, 
and will give admin rights to anyone on the NumPy developer team who wants to 
help manage / moderate discussions.

Of course, we can also just delete these if the team prefers to have their 
discussions somewhere else.  But I think there is a benefit to bringing 
community discussions together in one place.

Best regards,
Stéfan
