There is only one ticket *list*, <parrot-tickets at lists.parrot.org>.

There is also an email address <tickets at parrot.org>, which is a 
dedicated address for Trac's ticketing system. Messages sent there are 
added as a comment on the relevant bug (Trac parses the email to extract 
the ticket number). This was necessary to set up the "ticket comments 
from email" feature that many people wanted duplicated from the old RT 
system.

OSU OSL administers both the mailing list and the email address for 
Trac. "Reply all" goes to both, but a simple "Reply" only goes to 
<tickets at parrot.org> (that is, it goes into Trac, but not to the mailing 
list). Some email clients also have a "Reply list" feature, which only 
goes to the mailing list.
