My understanding is that "Ubuntu MOTU Developers
<ubuntu-motu at lists.ubuntu.com>" and "Ubuntu Core Developers
<ubuntu-devel-discuss at lists.ubuntu.com>" have been deprecated in favor
of using "Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss at lists.ubuntu.com>"
The Debian Maintainer Field Spec [1] seems to back this up.
