A short prefix helps people who can not or do not want to set up a  
filter. Since we target a wide audience of non-techie folk I think it  
is okay (for example, on laptop.org only the developers list has no  
prefix, which _is_ the Right Thing To Do but let's educate people  
about more important things ;-)).
