That is what a mailing list is. alias == distribution list == mailing list They are the same thing (although there may be different technologies involved). > The ONLY > purpose this serves is to make it easier for people to contact the council > directly (for whatever reason).

If it is for external people (say someone from Apple wanted to contact the Maemo council or something) then it should be an alias for [EMAIL PROTECTED] If it is for internal use amongst the council members themselves (which is what the original request seemed to suggest) then it is a private mailing list. Maybe it should be set up but my concerns still stand.
