Dear list-owner

This is to inform you that the Mailman mailing lists service will be moved
to a new server tomorrow and that between 10am and 1pm, the Mailman
service will therefore be unavailable.

This is to allow the lists and their archives to be copied to the new
server without the risk of them being updated while the copy takes place.
Hopefully, the downtime will be less than the full three hours, as the
script to migrate the lists and archives completed in just over an hour
today.

As part of the upgrade, the opportunity is being taken to upgrade Mailman
to the latest release, 2.1.14. Those interested in reading the list of
changes between our current version 2.1.5 and the latest version can read
