What's the guideline for cc'ing the person directly vs just replying to
the list address?

I'd say, if the mailing list includes the original author in the
reply-to, it is allowed to always post the author, too. Be cause
otherwise, every body always had to edit the "to" field when replying.

If the mayority would say they are too annoyed by getting mails twice,
then we should solve that technically - the list manager should
configure the list software to only make the list address the reply-to
header. The solution should not be everybody manually rewriting the to
field when responding.
