I don't know whether they moved it to another machine or not, but what they 
definitely did do was start sending emails to all the people on the list 
who had sending of emails disabled (including myself) which resulted in a 
flood of emails and from the sound of it a lot of annoyed people. If he 
wanted to community support for the takeover that probably wasn't a good 
start.

In case it isn't obvious why I might be subscribed but emails turned off, I 
read mailing lists like that through gmane in which case I still need to 
sign up to the list to post but definitely don't want to receive emails.
