There was a communication problem then somewhere. Sorry. I got the
impression that some Red Hat people wanted to set up a separate server
and talked to you internally about that; when we two were talking about
the hardware for the mailing list reporg I accidentally assumed it would
be for a seperate server.

Let's forget about it now and just move on.

Fine with me, but using the hostname like list.fedoraproject.org would
be nice, if possible without much hassle.
