Paul Graham has a unique perspective because he runs such a big site. 
However, for some other smaller questions, a FAQ I wrote a couple of years
back (and haven't updated since then) may still be useful.  It compares
most of the available Unix MLM's, and is behind only one version on most. 
(It is at, basically, 1.8a for LISTSERV, 7.0 for ListProc, and 1.93 for
Majordomo.)  But more than a blow-by-blow feature comparison I hope it
gives a few ideas (mine :-) ) for what to think about in terms of "what's
better, and why" 

To get it, send mail to majordomo@GreatCircle.COM with any subject and
this line in the body: 
	get list-managers software-faq
