Because it's an external resource. Mailing lists are the center of our 
community's activity, so we can't give away it's maintenance again (we 
saw what happened in the past).

Installing the Gmane lists took nearly one week - how should we have

So please tell them or change the information, if you can do it on your own.

I don't have the time to do so and it seems to be much more important to 
you.

As it was mentioned in two postings in this thread, this information 
should be changed at Gmane.

Could you please take care of this task?
