The whole point of our taking over the alioth lists service was that maintainers do not need to update maintainers field (e.g. several thousand packages for perl packages only). Now imagine that alioth lists service was eventually taken over by DSA and the new canonical domain became debian.org again. Should maintainers update their packages again? That's what we want to avoid, hence suggesting to keep lists.alioth.d.o instead of alioth-lists.d.n. BTW, you can take a look at the Mailman list of lists to find out if some list was migrated: https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo (linked from alioth-lists.d.n home page) Cheers, Alex -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Alex Muntada <al...@debian.org> ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋ Debian Developer - log.alexm.org ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀
