set up mailing lists #23

we should find out whether there is some reason that we persist in living
in the 80s wrt our mailing list management.  at the very least, this should
be useful:

aikidoka-mountain-view: members of mountain view dojo
aikidoka-san-francisco: members of san francisco dojo
aikidoka-west-county: members of west county dojo
...etc...
aikidoka: umbrella list for aikidoka-*

other potential list groups would include lists for
carpooling (eg, to camp)
camp (camp-related announcements)
instructors (per-dojo + umbrella)

there is some potential for having membership lists be driven by the camp
registrations listed in the db, but this would be non-trivial and should be
filed as a separate feature request.  this one is just about giving people
a central place to sign themselves up to get the emails that they would
otherwise only get if the person sending it happens to remember they exist.

I think this is a good idea, having mailing lists that the membership
can create and add/delete themselves.  However, having it as a part of the
main PAF website means a maintenance/authorization headache.

I'm talking to someone about a member's website, that will be referenced by
pacific-aikido.org, but secured and managed by a separate members group of
admin.  The site would be passworded, containing member's articles, photos,
and
we can add, mailing lists.

what is the maintenance headache?  you are not planning to moderate all the 
mailing
lists personally, are you?

please update this bug with information about how to use the mailing lists.  so 
far
as i know, everybody is still cobbling informal lists together out of whatever
addresses they happen to have in their address books.
