As I recall, the "plan" in the migration from the GMP lists to the
LilyPond lists was to annnounce the new lists and deprecate the old
lists in one stable release and kill off the old lists with the
*following* stable release.  I actually monitored the old lists for a
couple of years after the official end-of-life because I know that
someone people work with pretty old software.  I don't have any
responsibility for -fr list (or administrative access to it) but I
suggest that any renaming, if any occurs, be accomplished by a similar
plan.
