If the list is back on ardi.com will that slow down the list?  There will
be an awfull lot of mail coming from both directions.  Also,
this list does not add a reply-to header when sending the messages.  
The Reply-to header is used on many mailing lists to make it easier for
the user to reply in the right place.

Is it too late for an announcement newsgroup?
Also, has executor mailing list ever been announced on the New-lists mailing
lists.
