Hey Ops/SRE-
We noticed this old, seemingly-defunct mailing list: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-security owned by @csteipp, who hasn't been active in Wikimedia security for a while now. Could we transfer ownership of this list to the Security-Team? Specifically @JBennett and/or @Reedy and myself? We may end up shutting down the list, but I think we'd like to evaluate the archives, subs list, etc. first. Thanks.

Per https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230951 if this list is not still active the Security Team is planning to archive it.
Hellooo World?
The list had 23 emails during its entire existence; excluding yours now, the last one was in 2016.
@chasemp All you have to run is "rmlist <listname>" on fermium. By default that will keep the archives but close the list otherwise.
At this time the intention is to archive this list. If someone wants to take ownership in the future or resurrect another list with similar scope that seems like a fine thing. I'll be archiving it this week unless someone wants to ownership and maintainers status.
