BTW, there is already a hibernate-users mailing list hosted on the JBoss Mailman instance. Back when we moved to JBoss Mailman they used to set up a number of lists by default. We just chose to not really use this one in particular. We could use this one for purpose discussed here.
BTW, I looked into creating a Hibernate SO Team. Are we thinking one team? Or one per project (ORM, OGM, etc)?
