It hasn't existed as an independent list for some time, and has been just an alias for bug-gnu-emacs for well over a year: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-06/msg00790.html The current system seems to be working fine, and it seems unlikely e-p-b will ever be a separate list again. Having it still mentioned in the documentation has caused some confusion when people find what appears to be a dead list. I will make the necessary changes if this is considered a good idea.
