+1, no objections, but can we make sure that attempts to post to the old address have a helpful reply? The other day I saw an automated reply to a post to [email protected], and it just said, We are sorry, but email posting to this discussion is not allowed. Can we configure it (on users@, at least) to say, This discussion list has moved to <[email protected]>. Please re-post your mail to that address. See <http://subversion.apache.org/mailing-lists.html> for how to subscribe and other details. You can post without subscribing. The auto-reply I saw from dev@ includes a copy of the original email so the user doesn't have to have kept a copy. - Julian
