[ug-bosug] Lets get-off some mails.

Great suggestions as always, Dr Bish!

I agree.  The address to be used for this kinda stuff is:
ug-bosug-owner at opensolaris.org .  Have added this to the footer.

I agree.  BeleniX issues belong on the list.

Good idea.  Have added this info to the footer also.  All this
information is actually available in the List-* headers in each
mail, but everyone might not be aware of this.  Also, the BOSUG
forum on OpenSolaris.ORG might be a better place to go through the
archives, but there seems to be some issue with the synching between
the list and the forum right now.  Once that is sorted out, the best
place to go through the mail archives would be here:
http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/forum.jspa?forumID=54

Thanks,
Venky.
