Well that's likely a no. The statement from Charles was "I assume if
we're happy to have you field your own source repo during incubation
that you would stay in that repo through escalation."

Which probably applies to other things.

Charles also seems to think that the U of C mailing lists, if open and
archived, which they are, would satisfy the conceptual requirements, but
the issue needs to be voted on their next meeting.

Funny. It seems easier to meddle with incubator rules than to get a
project out of hibernation.

This would allow us to only set up forwarding from the @globus mailing
lists, which we would not advertise, but would be there if somebody
assumes there must be a swift-xyz at globus.org mailing list. So I suppose
there would be no more objections to such a setting.
