Speaking only for myself (as the admin team haven't had a chance to discuss this issue yet) I can't see us shutting down alioth-lists.debian.net any time soon. I do acknowledge that we should be providing some sort of statement given that we said the situation would be reviewed after a release cycle and I will try and coordinate that soon. >From a practical point of view I'd say its future as long as Mailman 2 is supported in Debian (ie until the end of buster's support) is pretty secure. We need to discuss whether we want to migrate to mailman 3 (or something else) but I see no reason in principle that the service shouldn't stay as long as it has a purpose. As others have said I don't think there is any need to change email addresses in maintainer fields at the this stage, so I don't think this lintian warning is appropriate.
