Final recap for the public lists to be imported and renamed at the same 
time :

arm-dev at centos.org => arm-dev at lists.centos.org
centos at centos.org => discuss at lists.centos.org (proposed by Amy)
centos-devel at centos.org => devel at lists.centos.org
centos-announce at centos.org => announce at lists.centos.org
centos-automotive-sig at centos.org => automotive-sig at lists.centos.org
centos-{cz,de,es,fr,nl,pt-br,zh}@centos.org => 
discuss-{cz,de,es,fr,nl,pt-br,zh}@lists.centos.org
ci-users at centos.org => ci-users at lists.centos.org
centos-gsoc: => gsoc at lists.centos.org
centos-mirror at centos.org => mirror at lists.centos.org
centos-mirror-announce at centos.org => mirror-announce at lists.centos.org
centos-newsletter at centos.org => newsletter at lists.centos.org
centos-promo at centos.org => promo at lists.centos.org
centos-virt at centos.org => virt at lists.centos.org

I'll write a wrapper script to automate the mailman2 => mailman3 import 
(host itself will be configured by new ansible mailman3 role, already 
tested) and I'll announce the day when we'll switch to new platform

Remark :
If we rename we have to inform all users on all lists that they'll have 
to modify eventually their filters, if they filter based on list but not 
subject.
Worth knowing that renaming a list modifies the email address but the 
list settings are still the same, so even if centos-devel at centos.org is 
imported as new list devel at lists.centos.org, the subject prefix (as 
imported by mailman2 import21 script) keeps it intact, so [CentOS-devel]
