I'm thinkin' it's possible (if not likely) that other existing mailing lists
analagous to ba-lego@cinnamon.com will continue to surface from time to time
and desire to be hooked into a .loc group. Maybe not often, but maybe a couple
or more a year. And in large cities like New York, Chicago, L.A., or San
Francisco, I sure wouldn't be surprised to hear about 2 or 3 separate and
unrelated mailing lists for those areas...especially with how easy it is these
days for anyone to set up a mailing list with services like listbot.com.
Anyway, putting likelihoods aside for the moment and assuming on faith that
this sort of thing could theoretically happen, how would a re-arrangement into
a .mailing-echo.* hierarchy work in a case like that?
