I think so, and questions about OpenDefinition.org. My understanding
is that if licensing questions relate to a specific domain they should
go on relevant domain list. If they relate to ODC licenses, they
should go on odc-discuss...

Ah I see! Okay makes sense.

Just to be absolutely clear just in case anyone who knows how to do
this misinterpreted. It would be a shame to lose archives...

odc-followup was created by Jason for post- Open Data Challenge stuff
(we have too many OD.. / OK.. / OG.. acronyms!). Think all of the
others are from OKF DE, so you could ask Daniel or Friedrich
directly...

That's about all I know.

A much needed spring clean!
