I'm subscribed to both now. ;-) The advantage to the NANOG subject
header was obviously it was resilient to e-mail address changes for the
list. A nice attribute given e-mails now come in from both
nanog@nanog.org and nanog@merit.edu addresses. Anyhow, I assume there
was compelling reason for the change.
