Congratulations. This is a welcome as nice and usable I would like to 
see when attending a mailing list.

But someone subscribing now will get this letter in a month. We probably 
loose a lot of interested/motivated people as they can't get enough 
information to get into the Hurd. It would be nice to send this Welcome 
to every new subscriber. Imagine a interested programmer willing to 
contribute something ASAP getting all this information in very first minute.
Who is the right person to contact for getting it immediatly to new 
subscribers? listmaster at debian? mailman-owner at gnu?

This link is dead now. I assume people should have a look at
http://people.debian.org/~jbailey/buildd/index.php
