[Coco] A return to bit.listserv.coco?

As a newbie on this mailing list, my opinion probably doesn't carry much
weight, but IMHO this is the best place for discussion of CoCo matters.
Membership suggests interest in the CoCo neighborhood, whereas
bit.listserv.coco IS open for the general public.  Case in point: all that
spam.

IF if could be done, THIS material could be gated to bit.listserv.coco,
thereby preserving the clarity and cleanliness of the material.

My 2 cents worth
