I'd like to propose establishing a few additional mailing lists for the
Aurora project:

* a user@ list to field questions that may go unanswered related to the
use and operations of Aurora. As the community grows, I increasingly see
questions on IRC that go unanswered during non-business hours, or that
are better handled asynchronously. This list would be a space for those
discussions, along with other non-dev conversations. 

* an announcements@ list that only Aurora committers could publish to
for release, committer, and project announcements.

Why should be create new lists? To increase communication with non-dev
members of the Aurora community. Additionally, I spent time digging
through stats from other Apache projects and found that non-dev lists
tend to have a higher subscriber rate -- particularly user@ lists. Let's
give a space for those members of the community.

Thoughts? If I don't hear any objections, I'll go ahead and file an
INFRA ticket later this week.

Dave
