 From the group remit:

     This list is for discussion of all aspects of the BBC Microcomputer
     and related machines such as the Acorn Electron and BBC Master
     Series.

 From the archive:

"What is the BBC Micro Mailing List?

The BBC Micro mailing list is a list is for discussion of all aspects of 
the BBC Microcomputer and related machines such as the Acorn Electron 
and BBC Master Series.

In the past there was a separate mailing list called BeebEmul8 for 
discussion of all aspects of emulation and emulators of the BBC 
Microcomputer and related machines such as the Acorn Electron and BBC 
Master Series. The BBCEmul8 mailing list has been integrated into the 
main BBC Micro mailing list. Questions and discussions relating to 
emulation and emulators of Acorn 8-bit machines are welcome on the BBC 
Micro mailing list."

As far as I know, discussion relating to the "A series" machines is 
off-topic on this mailing list.  When queries do occur the OP is usually 
redirected to the comp.sys.acorn newsgroups.

Regards,
Jon.
