+1 to everything Roland said (I'm deleting  
general at lists.openfabrics.org from my addressbook after sending this).

I'd suggest making a clean break -- on 1 Oct, make "general at lists.openfabrics.org 
" autoreply with something like "This list has moved; please re-send  
your message to linux-rdma at vger.kernel.org" or somesuch.
