    Not really.  This does not say that this list is for discussion of ANY 
kind of list software.  On the contrary, the implication seems to be the 
opposite (last phrase of first, and entire second paragraph).  Again, being 
hosted by GreatCircle does imply, at least to me, that it would have 
something to do with Majordomo.
    It would be like a mailing list hosted by Ford which is about engine 
maintenance.  One would think it would pertain to Fords.
    BTW, unlike most people who join mailing lists (<GG>), I DID read the 
above before joining.  I still got the idea this was a majordomo-oriented 
group.
