[TOS] List-Id craziness and other list info

[Ian Weller]

This is kind of a reply to neophyte's mail, and kind of not. Separate
thread time!

tl;dr: If you haven't changed how you communicate to this list over the
last week, keep it that way. You may have seen messages come through
tos at lists.teachingopensource.org -- this was broken configuration and I
have fixed that.

----

Turns out, when we moved the lists over here, mailman thought the
correct domain for the list was lists.teachingopensource.org, which
broke some things (including my mail client's Reply to List feature,
because OSUOSL did not set up the list to go through
tos at lists.teachingopensource.org). It also sparked a lot of confusion,
and broke a lot of mail filters.

As of now, *nothing* should be different about the list configuration
from what it was when ctyler was hosting it; the only difference should
be that it is hosted at a different place now (OSUOSL). If you didn't
change your mailing list filters in the last few days, you shouldn't
have to change them again.

The list has been configured to use the teachingopensource.org domain
for email headers and other related things.

With respect to some of neophyte's other concerns, it's not in my
interest to have a reply-to debate at the moment for these reasons:

- We have other infrastructure things I need to take care of (planet,
  for one thing, which is hopefully getting done today from what I hear
  in #osuosl).
- This is how the mailing list has been configured since day one by
  ctyler.

You can keep up with what's being worked on for TOS infrastructure
(mostly through OSUOSL) and get involved at:
  http://tickets.teachingopensource.org/projects/infrastructure/issues
(Let me/the list know if you have issues getting logged in.)

Thanks for everybody's patience through this.
