Plain "reply" is often only "reply-to-author" for many mailers. I use 
"reply-to-all" myself, and edit the headers if that seems excessive.  
Some mailers (eg mutt) also have a "list-reply" operation, which should 
also be correct, arguably more correct.

Using the same subject is _not_ enough. Messages are connected together 
with the "In-Reply-To:" header, which is automatically set by your 
mailer's "reply" function (regardless of the flavour mentioned above).

So please just reply to the relevant list message, and make sure the 
list address ([email protected]) is in the resulting to/cc.
