the main reason is in case the upgraded server and client do not
behave well together - but also, changes such as removing server
support for distros which the client supports, would guarantee
errors, if a comprehensive test suite were to exercise the
client<->server interactions, for example

that is perfect, if the live server will get the staging changes
before the client is released

mailing lists and VCS are separate services from the forge
the mailing list would probably be archived read-only - the bug
tracker was never used - the savannah project contains no
interesting data to preserve
