Yep, I agree it is a very desirable thing for most folks.  *Provided*
one thing: that you can still [un]subscribe via majordomo if you so
desire.  I'm loathe to start up a web browser just to do mailing list
management.  I know most people have trouble with majordomo, but when
you've been using it for as long as I have, you get used to its
quirks, and at least I can manage my mailing lists using `gnus' inside
emacs slogged-in to a terminal over a modem line without having to
fire up lynx or netscape...

Here's hoping majordomo doesn't go away completely...  My $0.02.
