The mailing list where common-lisp.net administrators and other users
hang out is <clo-devel at common-lisp.net>. However, the current state of
common-lisp.net was not caused by lack of resources. IIUC, one of the
administrators decided to single-handedly migrate most (but not all)
of the services running on c-l.net to a new box. In the process,
Apache was changed nginx, mailman to mlmmj, etc.

The issue at hand is therefore political rather than technical.

I think everybody shares that sentiment except for the aforementioned admin.
