How about change the list name to namedroppers@ieft.org and make
namedroppers@ops.ietf.org and dnsext@ietf.org aliases?

I think we definitely need an alias or else people trying to cc the DNSEXT
WG are going to miss.


One of the consequences of the lists moving to ietf.org is that they now
represent institutional memory that often extends beyond the lifetime of the
original WG. It is quite possible that in ten years time that DNSEXT will be
closed, but there will still be a need for ongoing observation and
discussion of DNS issues.

It is even quite possible that at some point in the future there might be a
DNSEXT2 come out of those discussions and the same community of interest
would be engaged so the namedroppers list could become a WG list a third
time.
