People will judge it by its actions, not by its alleged intentions.  The
suggested action -- shutting down a popular and useful mailing list, and
then creating a new one to serve exactly the same purpose -- would be
viewed by many people as making list members jump through hoops for no
reason other than to entertain the list administrators.  I can think of
few more effective ways to generate ill will, and to convince people that
GTALUG *is* bent on empire building.  If that's not the message you want
to send, then don't send it.
