Please don't commandeer another's email thread for your own purposes.
If you need to send a message to the list that is not in response to a
previous thread, please send a new email message with your topic.
Replying to someone else's message and changing the subject line
does not create a new thread but instead muddles your thread with the
original.  This can be clearly seen in the "References" section in the email
archives and is also obvious to those using thread-aware email clients (at
least).
