Since the definitive, canonical repository remains
https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-java the official
mailing list should remain in the yoctoproject.org
domain. Move to the new yocto-patches@lists.yoctoproject.org.

Please remember to set the "meta-java" subject-prefix:
git format-patch -M -s --subject-prefix='meta-java][PATCH' -1

This makes it much easier to find patches for meta-java.

For what it's worth, b4 should be able to do this automatically:

"""
$ cat .b4-config
[b4]
   send-prefixes = meta-java
   send-series-to = yocto-patches@lists.yoctoproject.org
"""

Haven't tested that myself though.

For older releases, you could also add scarthgap to send-prefixes for 
example.

https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/config.html for help on the 
configuration
https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/overview.html for 
contributor workflow
https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/maintainer/overview.html for 
maintainer workflow

Note that I only use b4 as a contributor but b4 was developed initially 
for helping kernel maintainers if I remember correctly.

404 here.

I think you meant https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-patches?
