Can we do it by just dropping catalog-sig and keeping distutils-sig? I'm afraid we might lose some important distutils-sig population if the process involves renaming the list, resubscribing, etc. I also *really* don't want to invalidate archive links to the distutils-sig archive.
All in all, +1 on not having two lists, but I'm really worried about "breaking" distutils-sig. We're still going to be talking about "distribution utilities", after all.
Worst case I'm sure subscribers can be transferred and the existing archive kept intact.
That's a great way to have a bunch of people complaining that they never subscribed to packaging-sig, not to mention the part where it breaks everyone's mail filters.
I really don't see any gains for renaming the list. It's not like we can go and scrub the entire internet of references to distutils-sig.
Not to mention breaking the gmane.org gateway, and those of us who sip the firehose there instead of trying to swallow it via e-mail.
