You approach this from deeply technical side. Yes, the repository is the same. But if we approach this from a user side or product side, there’s very little in common. Although I can install Kubuntu, then install all of Gnome, and use only Gnome applications, that would be rather weird. Typically, user who installed Kubuntu has completely different set of applications he uses daily, and his user experience has nothing in common with user experience in Ubuntu.

Kubuntu и Ubuntu имеют один и тот же репозитарий.
“Отличаются” только установочными дисками — вернее, набором программного обеспечения, предлагаемого для первоначальной установки (у Kubuntu — KDE, а не GNOME).
Kubuntu после совершения акта установки — это Ubnutu. В чистом виде. И никаких таких “completely different things”. Скорее “totally identical” (простите мой английский).

Do you have a better solution, preferably one that does not require me to educate 350+ existing subscribers and unknown number of future ones how to use their mail clients?

Люди, стремящиеся быстро решить сиюминутную проблему не задумываясь о последствиях, не переведутся никогда.

Было бы так изначально, никаких проблем. А сейчас в одних списках reply означает ответ в список, в других — отправителю. Радости не добавляет.

Let me correct you — Kubuntu, not Ubuntu. Those are completely different things. But surely, both “change reply-to” vs. “don’t change reply-to” and Kubuntu vs. Debian are cases of “things that work” vs. “thing that pretend to be right” decision.

for the mailing list where I decide, I always make reply-to point to the list. I don’t give a damn about what RFC say — I merely want all replies to be sent to the list

Собственно ожидать чего-то иного от человека, сознательно перешедшего с дебиана на убунту, было бы наивно.

Pundits are on the march? I don’t know who you was going to reach with this post, but for the mailing list where I decide, I always make reply-to point to the list. I don’t give a damn about what RFC say — I merely want all replies to be sent to the list, and I don’t want to go after every subscriber educating him about “Reply-to/Reply-to-author/Reply-to-list” functionality.
