Good point.

I've created reproducible-commits at lists.alioth.debian.org and have 
reconfigured our repositories to use it.  Go here to subscribe if
you're interested:

	https://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-commits

(Our repos are either forks of others' packages or don't correspond to
an official package, which is why I went with an Alioth list instead of
packages.qa.debian.org.  As packages such as strip-nondeterminism get
added to the archive, we can move their commit emails over to a
packages.qa.debian.org list.)

P.S. The Mailman admin password is
in /srv/home/groups/reproducible/admin/mailman_passwords on moszumanska
in case anyone else needs to tinker with the list settings.
