Killing fedora-maintainers is part of the plan for the mailing list reorganization the Board put on my plate months ago. The hardware for that was promised for mid April. :-( Mike, any update when something really happens? BTW, I agree with the fedora-devel-announce idea as something like that was part of the mailing list reorganization as well. But if the hardware for that is not that far away (e.g. less then one month) I'd say we create that on the new hardware directly.
