[GRASS5] Re: grass.itc.it server migration to new machine

[Markus Neteler]

Hi 'grass5' community,

I forgot to mention that this is the chance to rename 
the mailing list to grass-dev.

I think that I'll rename it and add an alias 'grass5'
which points to grass-dev at grass.itc.it . The current
name isn't really appropriate any more.
Also the subject prefix I would update then.

Any objections?

 Markus
