[snip] beginners@haskell.org: Although this name definitely captures the flavor of the mailing list and also conveys a sense of community (with the addition of the 's,' thanks to Dan Licata), the double-n is easy to mistake for beginners, and a new user would probably have difficulty remembering whether the name was "beginner" or "beginners" if a sudden question arose after six months of absence from the mailing list.
Don't we need to register to be able to post to the ml ? Don't we need to see (and the copy(/paste)) the address in the first place ? Don't we get an automated response with some info (including a reminder of the ml address) ? The issue of mispelling a mail address is a bit weak imo.
And can't we set up aliases in case this really turns out to be a problem? Groetjes, Martijn.
