Yes, and someone followed up with that suggestion.
But the problem is that someone needs to do it. Jan Labanowski is xkcd's "random person in Nebraska", a computational chemist volunteering unpaid time, on a 30 year old code base. That isn't so easy to step into, computational quantum chemists who are interesting in doing that migration are as rare as hen's teeth, and why would a non-QC systems developer help?
Yes, there are other mailing list hosting options, but the style and character of CCL is atypical enough that it warrants commentary in Wikipedia, at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_Chemistry_List . It is unlikely to be transplanted elsewhere.
It is that sort of independent web which gets smothered by Google's near single-handed ability to determine what people are allowed to view with Chrome, in this case in the name of "security".
