The thought was not so much the freeciv players subscribed to this list,
but rather new players recruited at apolyton. I think many of them
allready have an interest.
Also, apolyton is the main civ site, we should be represented.

At least I will visit it once in a while, and answer questions/ forward
them to the mailinglist.

And as I wrote in the original mail, I can just as easily ask them myself
(and that will be enough), but I felt I shouldn't bypass the oficial
freeciv administrators.
