Change the status to "Obsolete" to make it clearer that minor cleanup and other unnecessary changes from automated tools is not necessarily beneficial and has larger risk of breaking something without being quickly noticed due to lack of testing. In addition, remove the old mailing list that does not work anymore and point the web-page to a more accurate URL.
