That's not OT.  It's still relating to Samba!  (personal curiousity 
question, though: why "br"?)

The reason I am writing this is to ask if you might want to consider NOT 
putting your list on Yahoo.  More than once I have seen such lists (on the 
free mailing list provider web sites) go through changes, such as 
disappearing altogether, or turning into not-free sites.  At that point, 
all the information is lost. :-(

Is there any chance the Samba folk might consider hosting the list?  That 
is assuming that you, Daniel, would be the list owner?  That way, it's in 
the same place as the other Samba lists, the archives (I assume) might be 
more maintainable, and it would be "better" all the way around.

<disclaimer>I'm not on the Samba team, and I don't know if this is possible 
or not... I am just wondering.
