We wouldn't really use the @globus.org mailing lists. We fulfill our
requirement (given that we have no choice), and we also make it so that
we don't really fulfill the requirement. In other words we have the
lists, we do what we're asked, but we tell everybody to use the other
ones. And for the few cases when people ask questions on the @globus.org
lists, we move the discussion.
