Maybe it shouldn't. (?) Activity has pretty much entirely moved to
pkg-multimedia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org 

I thought the mostly dead old list could confuse people who stumble upon
it and might also give the wrong impression by it's lack of activity.
Maybe the debian-multimedia at l.d.o list description could be changed to
point to the new list. Of course the archives should remain available in
any case.

I guess it's not that important one way or the other.
