It should be easily possible, but I'd advise not doing that. I think the idea of
creating a new ogb-discuss sounds like a good idea though, and deprecating
cab-discuss. I'd also like to see ogb at opensolaris.org, a privately archived list
for the board members to use.

We have board at gnome.org as a way of organizing meeting agendas, airing our dirty
laundry, and any sensitive issues about financials or sponsor requests. Of
course, meeting minutes get sent to a public list, along with anything else that
 effects the membership. It's a pretty effective way of being able to pass the
baton on to a new set of people each year, since they can benefit from previous
years experience through the private archives.
