Ok, I stand corrected.

We don't do migrations like that, so that people:
1) Learn how to subscribe, and thus how to unsubscribe.
2) Don't get upset that they were added to a mailing list site they may not want to be one.
So I'd ask that you send an announcement out to the old list, and during a transition period you can subscribe the old list onto the vger one.
Neil B. did something similar recently for linux-nfs, perhaps you can ask him how he handled it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
