Due to $reallife, I'm no longer active in Fedora. I still own lxde@lists.fedoraproject.org though. The list is pretty much dead. Only two posts in 2019 and none in 2020 and 2021. Thus I'd like to retire the list.

What I did so far:

• Announced my intent to retire the list and asked for a volunteer to take over list ownership. To my surprise, two people responded. No one volunteered, they both agreed to closing, so I moved on.
• Updated the list description to clarify the list is retired.
• Sent a 'Goodbye' mail to all subscribers.
• Mass-unsubscribed everybody.
• Set mails and subscriptions to manual approval.

Now I would like to retire the list, means disable all list addresses (lxde-owner is spammed a lot) and disable subscription and moderation requests.

Can I just go ahead and delete the list in Postorius? The warning reads:

Are you sure you want to permanently delete this list?
All settings and membership data will be lost!

I think we still want to keep an archive of the list, but apart from that it should be retired completely. It's unlikely it will ever get revived since LXDE upstream is pretty much dead, too. Latest release of an LXDE component was a minor bugfix release of lxpanel almost a year ago. Most users and developers have moved on to LXQt.

Please let me know if I can delete the list or if we (you) need to do it manually.
