Again: the one and only reason I define crossposting as "bad" is
       that answers may only appear on one mailinglist 
       (like yours only on squeak-dev) - since typically not all
       people subscribed to all the lists (squeak-dev, vm-dev,
       pharo-dev, ...) and therefore will not reply to all.

       So discusssion forks and if a user reads only one list
       he will not benefit from answers on the other list.
