ooo-users, the future home of [email protected]

Like the existing list, it would not be exclusively support.  It would
be used for discussions, new feature  ideas, etc., whatever users want
to post (within reason).

We can't prevent users from posting support questions there.  Heck, we
can't prevent them from posting support questions on ooo-dev.  But we
can steer support questions to a more appropriate venue where needed.
