I like the general sentiment, but I think it may be a bad idea to automatically bring all the subscribers from the -3000 lists over to the more general lists. For instance if someone has an address subscribed specifically to archive the -3000 list suddenly it will begin archiving the other. I would rather just see a final announcement to switch to the other list and then close the list to further submissions. Let people join the new appropriate list manually if needed. Otherwise +1 on getting the discussion and checkins back into combined lists.
