If I talk specifically of this list -

Right, so at least build in some redundancy. And if the system is
undergoing maintenance, then announce it. The list was down for ~1.5
days on a weekend. No word that maintenance was scheduled, and I
knew of only one person that handles the list. This can be improved.
To 100% reliability? No, nothing is 100% reliable (just like nothing
is 100% safe). But one can make it better.
