Ivo, I edited the original subject line on that "Request for Comment"
reply -- it originally showed [Ansteorra-Announce] and [ANNOUNCEMENTS]
in some combination of capitalization, etc.

The message to which I was replying also originally appeared a couple of
days previous -- AND I was sending a copy of only a portion of the full
message that went to comments at sca.org and seneschal at anteorra.org, by
creating a new response to the original and selecting a different
reply-to address.

Hopefully that helps with the background, somewhat.
