Related to his suggestion, there is a deployment team on the wiki, and
a sugar-devel list.  A few questions follow:

1. Should we have a list for each team?  Eg. should there also be a
sugar-design list, etc.? This might be useful for announcing meetings.
 Also, having a list in the contact section for each team would make
sense.  I know that we strive not to split lists unnecessarily, but it
seems to me that the team divisions are fairly clear, and it would
actually make sense to cross-post when a subject involved several
teams.

2. Do we really need to preface the lists with "sugar-"; isn't
"@lists.sugarlabs" sufficient enough to indicate context? It seems we
might also have marketing at lists.sugarlabs, support at lists.sugarlabs,
etc.  All of these relate to sugar, but the prefix seems redundant.
