One way to do this is to make the "owner" of the list a list
rather than a person.  Here is what we have in a list header:
 
> *  Owner= (KIDOWNB)
> *  Owner= quiet:,(KIDOWNG)
> *
> *  Editor= (KIDOWNG)
> *  Editor= (KIDOWNB)
 
The KIDOWNG and KIDOWNB lists are private.  We do this, not
primarily to hide the names, but because we run lots of lists
with a big team of owners/editors.  The KIDOWNG list includes all
the different addresses of all the team members.  Some of those
addresses we don't want made public--I don't want anyone to write
to me at my CompuServe address, but I want to be able to send
commands from there if my main system goes down.
