All three approaches seem sensible to me - it really depends on how you intend to maintain it, i.e. what you feel most comfortable with. > P.S. Sorry for crossposting over three mailing lists.

When you cross-post to multiple lists without explicitly recommending a favorite for followups, I cannot sensibly reply only to one of them, but feel I need to continue cross-post my response. Please recommend a single list for followups (any of them is fine!), to limit continued cross-posting. I won't pick one, as simultanously several responses may encourage different ones and it'll be a mess: Please as original poster pick a single place for continued discussion.
