We should put this to a vote in the group.  It should be in a new
thread, vote Yes or No, if the Yes votes win we have the list's admin
add "reply-to" and finally put an end to this argument.  If No wins we
stay the way we are and deal with it in our own individual ways.
We're a group that advocates FLOSS (Free Libre Open Source Software),
and the freedom of the Majority to decide how this group should be
managed is one of our most important values.  Limiting this, denying
the majority what they want goes against the very tenants of FLOSS and
the values upon which the Ubuntu Linux distribution are founded.

I think we need Reply-To.  The reasoning for not having it, which was
posted here in this thread, was rather weak.  This needs to be
addressed, not swept under the rug, and telling people to just "deal
with it" or change email clients is an unacceptable option.
