I think in the long run, we will *want* a separat patches ML
anyways, because if we send 6500 patches or even only 2000-3000
patchsets to the samba-technical ML, this might seriously disturb
the visiblity of the actual technical discussions.

I suggest that we start on samba-technical and move to a separate
ML if the disturbance gets too big (if we can use a subject
pattern like [PATCH] for (e.g.) patchwork to pick up).
