I sort of was presuming that the proposal to retire a given list ought
to be debated on that list too (and I think this is covered by the
"there may be objections" in Peter's proposal); but do we really need
to debate the merits of another list on -general?  If people aren't
actually subscribed to the list in question, why should they care (or,
for that matter, be consulted) on its disposition?
