Well, as it turns out, right AFTER I posted this I noticed Rob's
discussion on the MLs in general. So, I won't change any links, and I
have no power to add footers to the list messages. I guess we'll wait
for Rob's implementation that seems to cover ALL active lists.
Apparently my timing was off.

Having all of the discussion about the future of OO.o lists on ooo-dev is
probably ineffective. It would be good to engage on the OO.o lists and, in
particular, engage those moderators and administrators that have survived in
their roles to advise and assist in determining what needs to be done. In
particular, many lists will simply be shut down.
The individual list subscription pages on OO.o could be updated to indicate
what has happened, where the archive remains, and what the replacement is, if
any. Those pages probably won't come up until the domain is pointed to an
Apache version of the site.

I'd suggest adding a footer to all these mailing list mails that states
the
project is now at Apache and the list will be closed down in the future
and
moved to an Apache.org address.
There should also be regular mails to the lists saying the same and
inviting
list participants to join [email protected] to discuss their
needs.
As lists are created here you can change these headers and mails to
warnings
about switch off with subscription instructions for the lists here.

In general, setting a ML footer is fairly easy to do, for an owner under
SYMPA.
I have a small problem w/r/t the @documentation lists, because we at AOOo
have made no provision for documentation at all.
Hopefully we can get some active members of the existing documentation
lists over here to tell us what they need and how they would like to
operate within the AOOo poject. Then we will have provision ;-)
This goes for all areas that were covered but are not currently
covered. The discussion starts here on the dev list and, if necessary,
we create infrastructure specific to any given activity.
