[SAC] migrating geodata committee site, lists

[Jason Birch]

I also prefer lists.osgeo.org, but there will need to be a lot of work
done (dev@ and users@ are pretty common list names...)  I'd be happy to
see something less generic though.

List admins can also help tweak if needed, and i bet list members won't
mind having to adjust their settings, after all it is in a good cause.

Does anyone else have a strong opinion about list domains and are their
objections to having everything under lists.osgeo.org ? That way CN
could delegate the domain now and we could start using it, oh almost
right away, right? ;)

Does anyone have thoughts about list archive search utilities / better
alternatives to pipermail? This isn't a priority, i suppose but would be
a real nice-to-have.

KK et al, you're on this list right? Do you think it will be easy to
make multiple drupal instances as little different as possible sharing
templates themes etc? I mean, there is no big rush, but i definitely
want to mess around with this in spare time between xmas and new year.

cheers,
