It's a recurring problem, or set of problems.
To quote Karl Best:
"I recall having sent almost identical messages to this list a couple of
times a year over the past three years, obviously to no effect."
Taking a quick look through xmlhack.com archives, there are:

The move itself was reported on in:

Based on Karl's message, it seems pretty clear that OASIS has other
things they could do with the resources they spend on xml-dev. Moving
the list might well be good both for OASIS and for the list.
