Mappa-Mercia.org is a web portal we (being the OSMers in and around
Birmingham) use to display the OSM wares in the West Midlands. Mappa Mercia
is simply a play on the Mappa Mundi and former region of Mercia.

We've found it easier to promote OSM to some organisations (eg Birmingham
City Council) by giving it a local branding.

Blackadder-lists is just an email address I use for keeping mailing list
emails separate from my work and private emails.

Hope that clarifies?
