Don't panic, Fernando!  That's exactly what I said, the sourceforge list
is the replacement.  The web page will just point to the sourceforge list
for those folks who didn't get the message if/when Oracle closes.  You're
not suggesting that we all should abandon Oracle's list before its closed,
are you?  How many subscribers are on Oracle's list?
