Does the removal of [LAU] also mean that the use of '[' and ']' for

discouraged?
No, not at all, please continue to do so! It's just that if the mailing
list software (in our case Mailman3) is configured to add a subject
prefix like [LAU] then the original mail is changed. Some mail services
consider this as tampering with mails and might consider this as a
possible attempt of spoofing. Which in turn might cause mail getting
rejected. If this happens too much then mail services might start to
consider any mail coming from lists.linuxaudio.org as less trustworthy.
