I've created one on my own domain name as
<concreole@...>, mostly because I find the ads on
Yahoo! Groups annoyingly intrusive. This uses a similar interface to
the relay mailing list, so you can subscribe either by sending to
<concreole-request@...> with subject or body
'subscribe' and your name, or by going to
<http://thecartographers.net/mailman/listinfo/
concreole_thecartographers.net> and using the web interface. (I'll
shortly make a shorter alias for that address if you think it's too
long...)

If people prefer a Yahoo! group (or don't want me as admin/mod, or
don't like being hosted on a conspiracy theory, or think I gave it a
crappy name), that's okay too; just create a dissenting list via
<http://groups.yahoo.com/>.
