Just wanted to bring up the experince of moving linux-fbdev from sf.net to 
vger. The reason we did the move was because of the amount of spam we had 
to deal with. Now we have no spam. Of course the draw back is that the old 
list still exist which means the spam still comes in thus it has to be 
dealt with. Not too big of a deal. The real issue is people still join the 
old mailing list and try to post there. Perhaps their is a way to forward 
subscriptions or send a message to the subscriber to tell them where to 
really join? Then you have to send real mail to the new list.
