OT/Admin: tags

All,

Although this has come up a few times already, I am going to bring it
up again. Come kick my butt if you don't like it :)

Given the volume of the list, and the many off-topic (lets not discuss
what is and is not on-topic here) talk, I would like to propose [again]
that we do like other lists do: insert a tag [cctalk] in the Subject:
line of the postings, so it's easy to distinguis the postings from
other, perhaps more pressing e-mail.

Selecting/filtering based on sender address doesn't work well for all
clients, and depends on the ability to use processing rules in the
first place.

As said, most lists out there already use this technique, it's been
accepted more or less as a standard, so can we *please* use something
like this ?

I don't want to start Yet Another Discussion, a mere vote would do, as
we're all techies who know what this is about.

Cheers,
        Fred
