We're finishing up a final test that will (hopefully) show that we're
ready to do the move of the lists to the new machine/software that
I've been promising. This will likely result in a day of list downtime
sometime this week (hopefully Tuesday or Wednesday). After the downtime, the
lists will come back with somewhat limited functionality for a few days while
we rebuild and index the archives, but the lists should be fully usable during
that time.

Its my hope that this will fix some of the current spotty list delivery
issues, or at least make them much easier to debug. The move will also give
the list access to a bunch of new features (easier swap from digest to normal
mail, web archives, searchable archives, etc).

Note: For those who care, we're going to a version of Mailman 2.1.5 with some
additional patches (htdig integration for example).
