[64studio-devel] Reply-to all

[Jason Schaefer]

In response to the anti-reply-to-munging article, I think we should
remember this is a list, if people want to discuss off topic then copy
them to your address book and send a note privately. The fact that you
can't click reply and have it go only to the author is trivial in
comparison to forgetting to hit reply-all, writing an entire message,
sending it, realizing it went to only one person, having to go back
and copy the message you wrote, click reply-all, paste the message and
send. Not to mention the original author now has two copies.
.... The other lists I am on do the reply-to munging, so this happens
to me _every_ time I reply to this list. I suppose I will get used to
it, if we decide not to change it.
