			== Requesting a new mailing list ==

			The best way to start a new mailing list is to begin a discussion on a related list that already exists,
			and once the discussion becomes active, to ask for a separate list for that topic or that sort of traffic.

			When you have a critical mass of people regularly talking about the same topic, request a mailing list by
			emailing the following information to the administrative contact:

			# The name you want for your mailing list, with alternative names if the first one is taken
			# A description of the list, its purpose, and why it's needed (being able to say "we've been talking on this other list for a while, and the discussion has grown too big - see these archive links" is helpful)
			# The name/email of the list admin, and of at least one other moderator (minimum one admin and one moderator)
			# At least 10 names/emails of people who want to be the initial subscribers

			It may take up to 48h to hear a response back, so please be patient!
