Hi,
This is a valid point, and i've never quite felt happy with the name
either to be honest. Therefore I have changed the name of the list to
"UK Ubuntu Talk", which isn't ideal in itself either. However, it's
certainly better than it was.
I should raise the attention that this *could* break peoples auto
sorting rules, as you'll note:
Reply-To: British Ubuntu Talk <ubuntu-uk at lists.ubuntu.com>
List-Id: British Ubuntu Talk <ubuntu-uk.lists.ubuntu.com>
Will now change to:
Reply-To: UK Ubuntu Talk <ubuntu-uk at lists.ubuntu.com>
List-Id: UK Ubuntu Talk <ubuntu-uk.lists.ubuntu.com>
Depending how you sort the mailing lists, this could be a non-issue.
For others it could temporary break it, i can offer my apologies, but
hope you can see why this has been changed.
Kind Regards,
Dave Walker
