    I wouldn't want to change the list name, but the description provided on
    the Mailman listinfo page might be changed. My reluctance may be because
    I'm a Mailman newbie, and don't know how to transfer things like the
    archives from an old list to the new one (or how to import ten years of
    Majordomo archives into the Mailman list that replaced it :-).
