 We have a bunch of mailing lists. There are a few people on the
 "listmaster" default list -- me, nickm, qbi, atagar. Some other lists have
 other owners.

 Step one should be to go through
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/emailLists
 and see if the maintainers listed on that table are accurate. And update
 it with what we learn. Also there are probably internal (unlisted) lists
 that we should track down and do that process for too.

 Then step two should be to figure out which lists need more help, or a
 fresh set of maintainers, and make that part happen.

 I'm filing this ticket because I'm probably the most active maintainer for
 tor-talk, tor-relays, and tor-dev, and the *-owner aliases for those three
 lists are being bombed with spam starting a week or so ago, and I was
 trying to survive it for the past week but I've now given up and I'm
 filtering all of that mail into a mailbox that I will probably just
 ignore. So, here is our heads-up that the main lists have just lost their
 main maintainer, and maybe we can build a plan to handle it.
