I would vote for 'reply to all', otherwise there is no discussion...

Thanks for the feedback MJ.  This has come up a few times over the  
years and most of the feedback we got was that people liked it so that  
reply wen to the entire list.

The most common rationale I got was
a) it's a discussion list so the default should be to discuss (i.e.  
send to the entire list)
b) people were used to reply going to the whole list for ours and most  
other discussion lists they were on

If memory serves correctly in our early years (maybe around 2002 or  
2003 ) I did change the list so that reply went only to the original  
poster but we went back to the way it is now to support the feedback  
we got.

These are not necessarily my own opinions but just the feedback I've  
gotten over the years and if the community would like to change this I  
am happy to change the settings.

Discuss ... Discuss... Discuss (BUT TRIM THOSE POSTS!)
