Many people here use something like meetup.com instead of a mailing
list. Most PUG lists end up dead; only a few are active. It's a pain
to get rid of dead lists, so our criteria now is to let the group prove
itself active before we create the list. I guess if you have enough
energy to get an NPO up and running, that should qualify.
