I'm still looking for an ISO 2000-able mechanism (repeatable, documented, understandable) to migrate the email lists in the incubator domain to the eventual TLP domain without losing threads, context, etc. I see that Cocoon apparently has merged their before- and after- graduation lists, but don't have any idea how well documented and repeatable that process was. For all I know, it was done by superhuman effort by one of the superhumans in infra.

AFAIK, I don't have superhuman abilities -- just a lot of scripting-foo.

It takes 5 minutes to move a list now, after I spent a couple weeks
working on the scripts to do it.  Nevertheless, I don't like moving
lists unless there is a good reason.  It is a potentially error-prone
process if something unforeseen blocks the move.

FYI, trailers are also hard to maintain because they go away
every time the list is reconfigured.  They also waste bits.
