Jesse, can you set up the new lists?  Or does someone else need to do 
that?

I can send you (or whoever) the current subscriber lists.

BTW, I'm the current admin for the Mesa lists on SourceForge.  I 
manually unsubscribe people who can't figure it out for themselves, 
allow posts from non-members (sometimes), etc.  I'd gladly pass on 
that responsibility to someone else.  Would that automatically become 
the job of the current fd.o admins?
