Uh, I was just saying they should be hosted at Debian. My question was meant
to incite Dale (or whoever responsible) to move them the Debian listserver.
Not to flame! Sorry if my tone was flamebait-ish. :(

Well, uh, I do :)

That was my guess, too... thousand thanks to the owners of the current
listserver hosting them, but we could begin transition to our official
listserver slowly. It seems to be The Right Thing (TM) to do.
The bug against lists.debian.org about the lists hasn't been filed yet.
The instructions on how to do it are at:
http://www.debian.org/devel/HOWTO_start_list
Should I do it or will someone more acquinted with nm-{admin,discuss} do it,
please?

Yeah, I saw several people saying there are problems with it... this needs
to be fixed as well, of course, to the benefit of these lists and all others
on it.
Who can do something about that, the listmaster or the webmaster? [CC:ed to
both]
