With a redirect, that sounds like a suitable time. We will have to spot whether people posted to the Alioth list and inform them though -- it will be fairly transparent to subscribers to the new list.

Moving debian-live-devel to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi, as Debian Live will be an official Debian subproject starting with the upcoming Lenny Beta 1 release, I've requested a new list, [EMAIL PROTECTED], in order to reflect the 'new' state (in practise, that means that this list here, debian-live-devel and it's archives will move to that new list). Debian listmasters procedures[0] appears to need seconds from other people too. So, guys.. at least the people listed at [1] please write a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], a simple 'seconded' in the body is enough. Everyone else is of course also welcome to do so, it's just that I try to get a hand at least on those people that are listed as team-members.
