I don't plan to remove it. Probably I will put a notice to the 
repository, which says "This is not used any longer. Use foobar 
instead.".

Well, each time I ask, there are various opinions for it. Some people 
believe that one mailing list is good enough and the traffic is not 
significant. Others think multiple lists would make things better. 
AFAIK, neither of them is particularly strong compared to the other. 
That's why I haven't made any new list for GRUB yet.

Anyway, we need to change the mailing list used for PUPA, because it 
should be managed by gnu.org rather than nongnu.org. So which will be 
used, bug-grub or a new list? I have no strong opinion about this.

I'd like to change the canonical name to GRUB 2, but I'm not sure about 
details. I think it is quite boring to change all prefixes to grub_ 
from pupa_. So it may be better to keep the name PUPA only inside the 
source code. What do you think?
