Gerald, etc,

In deference to Gerald's enourmous contributions to us all I have modified
the behaviour of the list to set the reply-to to point to the list.

As has been discussed at some length, how this handled is somewhat
controversial and I have no strong preference for either approach. However,
I am generally no longer willing to discuss the matter on lists as it is a
distraction from the primary purpose of the list, and is a well tread path
of arguments.  To that end, I hope that my post will end the public
discussion, not just re-enflame it.

All are welcome to email me, Gerald, etc privately on the issue.

Best regards,
