I recently submitted a new list request to gmane, because of a similar
frustration, about a week ago.  Looks like they created the archive:

http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.fstests

And even better, it looks like postmaster@vger.kernel.org even updated
for us.

http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#fstests

Gmane is sometimes a bit slow to update, so if someone can manage to
pursuade marc.info to also archive this list, that would be a good
thing.
