Not to play down the frustration you must be feeling, but when I was
putting together the Indiana team's stuff early in 2007, I e-mailed
mailman at lists.ubuntu.com to request a mailing list as per the
instructions on the page Matthew mentioned, and we did wait less than
two weeks.

If there has been a change in procedure for requesting a mailing list,
it must have been before that.

Just my two cents.
