 When we talked about this I suggested to implement the following (more
or less):

   - user U is administrator of project P on Savannah
   - using the Savannah interface he (and only he) has an interface to
     ask that a Mailman mailing is bound to project U
   - when he asks for it the binding will only occur if the user U is
     able to provide the administration password for the mailing list

 This way there is no chance that a mailing list is "stolen" by a project.

 This is going to be tough I guess.

 All this sounds good to me.
