I don't want to put words in Christopher's mouth, but I read his original
post as saying that regardless of whether or not he puts the listserv on
swingleydev.com right now, "we will be looking for a long term home". I
think that what Chris is saying is that swingleydev.com would be a stopgap
solution, not the end all solution.

If I'm reading that right, then The Porch would probably be best served
going with a stable commercial entity that knows how to handle Mailman
hosting. A quick Googling turns up the following possiblities:

https://www.mailmanlist.net/

Big list: ht
tp://wiki.list.org/display/COM/Mailman+hosting+services

I would recommend doing a little research to pick a hosting company that
has been around a while. One can look up the WHOIS record on the domain, in
many cases to see when it was registered. Any of these services will be
relatively inexpensive and the costs can probably be covered simply by the
ListMom letting the group know that they are in need of funds for the
annual bill (or however often). When there ceases to be enough support for
that, then I would say the ListServ has reached its End of Life. Any Galoot
with the desire and the means could certainly provide for the continuing
costs by amending their will and making a bequest or planned gift.
