Yeah, I think keeping a single mailing list server is better.  I don't
think the extra load is going to be all that much anyway -- if we can
handle pgsql-hackers and pgsql-general, we shouldn't have much problem
adding a couple dozen mostly inactive lists (compared to those).

The only interesting bit is going to be the list mgmt interface ...
but that's probably OK.
