This is still a pretty strange list. I have to manually change
the address if I want to respond off list. This is awkward
enough that I sometimes won't bother when I'd normally send a
quick note to someone. Lots of unimportant stuff ends up on
the list too.

Also, people don't get distinct personal replies. I guess this
isn't terribly important on a low-volume list, but things get
rough if traffic ever gets to be a few hundred posts per day.
Then, you really want people using reply-to-all so that people
can filter the personal copy as high-priority.

tuxpaint-news would be shorter
