What are we actaully trying to fix here?

As the problems with the admin of the mailing list has now been effectively 
fixed, the only thing now driving us to find a new home, is that the alioth 
hosted mailinglist server is being shut down, is this correct?

Assuming:
1. Gmane.org NNTP is still staying online?
2. We can't migrate to lists.debian.org? (it's an option in the announcement 
about alioth shutting down)

If it's just a case of losing the mailinglist system and we can't move to 
lists.debian.org, then surely thats an easy fix with a low-cost server (such 
as the new gopherproject.org server) ?

Developing a 'complete replacement' solution seems overkill if the Gmane NNTP 
stays up.
