+This would be for potential packager apprentices or others to easily contact all 
+members the mentoring coordinator team.
+So one of us can respond quickly, mostly to update our packages_mentoring wiki 
+page.  (Which will be ready in the next few days.)
+We could also use it to discuss among ourselves, which we now do by private email.
+So it wouldn't be of general interest.  We wouldn't want those outside our group 
+responding to messages received, like in a public mailing list.
+(The group might include a few outside our team.)
+(It could include mentors, but they will see useful info on our wiki page.)
+A restricted-access mailing list should work.
+
+So it boils down to whatever is easiest, I guess.
+pmentoring-coord at group.mageia.org ?
+pmentoring-coord at ml.mageia.org ?
+
+Your call :)
