There's no particular reason for the l33tness of linux-arch@vger - Dave set
it up as some alias thingy and restricts the visibility so that he doesn't
need to admin it for spam.  IOW: letting the email address leak onto other
mailing lists will cause the spammers to get a hold of it.

I do think it would be better if we had a regular old mailing list for
discussing cross-arch issues.  If someone wants to volunteer to set up and
admin such a list we could probably migrate...
