Although I believe when it was first set up, Warren asked people on TUHS to
send him a note.

When things move from TUHS to COFF - two things (sometimes) occur.  The
person moving it, should BCC: TUHS and mention that it's moving, but .. all
preceding message will not yet have COFF in the header and thus will
continue to send things to TUHS.

As you know, many of these streams often diverge to non-UNIX-related issues.
Warren created COFF as a place to have those discussions, but people who
only wanted to discuss items relevant to the UNIX community should stick to
its history.
