Can we make the default reply-to for the new list be the list? This is one of several areas where I disagree with jwz.
We discussed it a bit on Monday and concluded that it was better to endure a few weeks of people's replies going to the old lists for messages which came from there through the new list, rather than enact a change in behavior for the new list just after people had started to settle into it. Problem with Reply-To is that you are stuck deciding whether to override the author's Reply-To (if provided) or inconsistently add one for the ML when the author didn't have one. Most modern E-mail clients have a reply-to-list option you can use when replying on mailing lists which include proper RFC 2369 List-* headers (though I too will admit I forget which one to hit sometimes when I'm not paying attention). -- Jeremy Stanley
