We could use an IRC equivalent on freenode.. #ha-wg ? the channel is free at moment. I don't see single projects mailing lists or IRC channels disappearing any time soon and it doesn't make sense to kill them all either. Some lists will disappear in time as the projects will slowly become obsoleted. The issue here is that we can't really force it. It has to be a natural process. Look at cman for example. True we obsoleted it in the new world, but effectively cman will not die till RHEL6 support ends in several years from now.
