I think closing this mailing list will make it that much harder for people who aren't part of the "inner circle" or the dedicated developers to actually contribute to the project. Github doesn't send out emails to everyone over every issue, requiring anyone who wants to help to constantly check the website for new issues and pull requests, and doesn't make it very clear where certain issues will end up. There have been a few cases where issues have been brought up here where I felt that really helped- the technical discussion still happened on Github, but attention was brought to those issues from here.
This list may not be ideal, but I think shutting it down would be a sign that outside contributions are not as encouraged. -1 (assuming I get a vote, not really sure how that works).
