OK, so I was wrong. This _is_ actually something on murphy.

The members.pl script does a wget of files from:
   http://murphy.debian.org/list-stats

If you look in the file for 200207, you will see that it contains the 
line:
   326 /var/list/debian-devel-games-REMOVED/dist

This is what eventually causes the list to be marked dead on
http://lists.debian.org/stats/

I currently see 2 lists that are not dead but are incorrectly marked as 
such:
- debian-accessibility   because of 200302
- debian-devel-games     because of 200207 to 200212

I also see a number of lists that should be marked as dead, but are not.
Random examples:
- debian-chinese
- debian-simplified-chinese
- debian-x86-64

Could a real ;-) listmaster perhaps look at what creates the contents of 
the list-stats files on murphy and how the status of lists could be 
corrected?

Thanks,
FJP
