Thanks for the information. As a quick glimpse, linux1394-devel has been
archived since 2003. It looks to be a good source to push into
lore.kernel.org, while I know that the list archive should include many
spams since any one is allowed to post to the list without subscribing and
being moderated at one time. It is one of my reason not to use the list
so actively. I need to make filter to remove them before pushing.
Furthermore, the ownership of list is still unclear to me. I have a small
hesitation to use it further...

I've already got the account and enough permission to linux1394
repository, but The repository is inactive so long, and abandoned. Looking
ahead to my future work, I'm preparing them at present.

Thanks
