[PD] [OT] pd-announce vs pd-list (was Re: Cyclone 0.3 beta 2 released)

[zmoelnig at iem.at]

as you might have noticed, all emails that you send to the pd-announce
mailinglist will automatically get forwarded to pd-list as well.
this is nothing new, it has been in action for more than 11 years [1]
and has since been advertised on the pd-announce info page [2].

the consequence of this behaviour is that if you send announcements to
both pd-announce and pd-list, your announcement will be sent twice to
the pd-list.
i think this is a mild annoyance and i would welcome ideas on who to
prevent people from accidentally doing this.
(it seems to be common enough for people to post to both lists but never
wonder why they receive duplicate announcements).
