admins@postgresql.org mailing list?

Guys,

I know, I know, the last thing we need is another mailing list. HOWEVER, we
have had a request from a couple of current web hosts (Sean and one other)
and alternates for various postgresql.org sites that we establish a closed
mailing list exclusively for those who own boxes that host postgresql.org
stuff, or who have admin rights on them.

The reason this has been requested is that these host donors don't want to
subscribe to pgsql-www, because they don't care about web development.
Further, the subscription address list would be automatically echoed to a
non-postgresql.org mailserver somewhere, so that it can be used to coordinate
in the event of a general network failure like last week's.

I know this sounds similar to what Devrim proposed a few months ago, but this
would be a bit different. For one, it would not concern web site
development *at all*, which would still happen on this list. It would
instead be devoted exclusively to "Server A is down, who can take the list
archives?" and "Hub.org is going down at 5pm to relocate, switching over to
alternate DNS" type messages. Also exchanging passwords and setup info,
necessitating a closed, non-archived list.

Does this seem like a good idea?
