 There is still a tor-assistants list:
 https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-assistants
 but it has a strange group of past people on it, and I don't see anybody
 successfully using it, except Micah using it in Nov 2019 and Jan 2020 in
 response to nextcloud password resets, and I have no idea how that
 happened but it doesn't seem mission-critical. :)

 Long ago we used tor-assistants at tpo (not @lists.tpo) for people to help me
 answer questions from the outside world, but we long ago stopped
 successfully doing that, and somebody made a mailman list out of it but it
 never really got off the ground. Now there is tor-team at lists.tpo for a
 similar but different role.

 In any case, this list is not in use, and nobody has been maintaining its
 subscriber list. It's a good time to clean it up.

 Thanks!
