Thanks for moving all the lists, lists at sourceforge are such a PITA.

Wouldn't it have been smarter to wait until the subscriber list had
been copied over before using the new list? I see on
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2010-April/thread.html
a lot of mail that I did not receive.

Also, bugzilla mail for DRI drivers such as Drivers/DRI/Savage is
assigned to dri-devel (already moved to fd.o) but shouldn't those go
to mesa-dev instead?
