[Mpi-forum] Scheduled maintenance

Not redirecting breaks the backwards compatibility of this feature.  You
first need to deprecate the lists, then wait 3+ years and you can delete
them.  At that point, it is at the discretion of IU whether or not to
continue to support them.

Also, I want to see the implementation of the new lists before I'll believe
you that they'll work.  Can you implement them in hardware?  What is the
performance of GUPS using mpiwg-rma?

On a related note, what's the current state of support for MPI Forum lists
w.r.t. attachments larger than 2 GB?  I know that's been a problem for some
email lists in the past.

:-D
