Yes, but I think you are missing two pieces of information:

1. The "unsubscribe" commands *actually work* on majordomo.
2. The list will have a parent at CS.HUJI.

And I think these two points will help upgrade the quality of life of
the subscribers of the list (just wandering, how many are there?).
