And you've got it only two hours later after I've sent it. =) I must say
that's a pretty responsive thanks to the very fast moderator's work.
Usually you send a letter and go to sleep, and tomorrow there is usually
another important problem to tackle.

The workflow is still far from ideal:
- find list management page
- enter email into html form, hit subscribe
- open email, wait for confirmation
- follow the link, confirm
- open email again, write a letter, send
- wait for response
- receive ~10 letters unrelevant to your problem
- unsubscribe
With Google Groups it is:
- follow the link to group page, login
- instant subscribe in two clicks from web interface
- write new topic, check notification box, send
I wish that open source services supported this kind of workflow. Actually,
I just needed to open a ticket in tracker, but it seems to be read-only.
