+You would still miss people who post on -dev, forums or irc. So for the
+mentoring team, this mean just more work or at least, it cannot be less
+work. 
+
+For mentors and people interested in mentoring, that doesn't bring much
+either ( ie, they have to read -dev anyway ).
+
+And that's the same for people interested in packaging, this just mean 2
+lists to follow instead of one ( cause if the goal is to do packages,
+not subscribing to -dev is out of question IMHO ).
+
+So I do not see how yet another list would really help :/
