What about the current archive? This is indexed and might be good
to keep the links valid over time.

http://listcultures.org/mailman/listinfo/p2presearch_listcultures.org

For the export, as you are currently using Mailman, you'll just need to do:

cd $MAILMANHOME
./list_members > email_of_subcribers.txt

and you'll need to import the list back into your new list.

What will be the new mailing-list?

On the wiki is still mentioned the listcultures.org one:

http://p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Foundation_Email_Lists

Hope this helps,

Kind regards,
