 From what I found there is still no way to transfer archives to  
google groups. (Interestingly, you can mirror another list in google  
groups.)
See http://groups.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=46387&topic=9249 
  . Most other lists I found that have gone to groups have a separate  
static archive of all of their older postings.
