I don't think there's much of a pattern, and the haskell-i18n list is a good counter-example. haskell-cafe could just as easily have been cafe; there's no real need for the haskell- prefix. All of the lists are @haskell.org, so there's redundancy in the prefix. IMO, the only lists that need a prefix are haskell-fr, haskell-prime, and haskell. And even haskell could be renamed to announce. You yourself expressed concern over the length of the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] My vote is still for [EMAIL PROTECTED] Alistair _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
