[Systems] Fwd: Another long time contributor going offlist by accident :)

You have to convince the list administrators, not the sysadmins.

BTW: Jonas is a DD, and years ago he started a thread asking to change
the lists to match Debian. IIRC, after a longish discussion, the (weak)
consensus was to keep the "reply to poster" mode for consistency with
OLPC and Fedora, because at the time we were working closely with them.

I don't feel very strongly either way, but I see more value in replacing
classic mailing-lists with something web-enabled. Samuel is already
experimenting with Mailman3, so let's hold off micro-tuning the lists
until the migration. This way we'll confuse people only once.
