I fully agree.  I would expect many people to feel offended at being
forced to write to a list with such a name -- let him who's never been
childish cast them the first stone.

Let's face it -- it already takes A$1.8 to get a green note.  I think
it may be a good idea to move user support to ``xpert'', make
``devel'' public and move XFree86 development to it, and create a new
``private'' list for internal announcements only.  Naming the new list
``private'' would have the additional advantage of reminding people
what it is for.
