Actually, that doc is out of date. The 'mailman import21' command for
importing a list from a Mailman 2.1 config.pck currently works quite
well. We've used it to migrate several lists on python.org and it works
well (and bugs when found get fixed).

The biggest issue is anomalies in the archive .mbox files that affect
the hyperkitty_import process.
