It's possible to have communities elsewhere that are not part of
Apache. The Tcl community, for instance is really a very good one.
The newsgroup is still the primary means of comunication, due in no
small part to the calm, friendly, helpful nature of even the most
expert participants.
I don't think it would make sense to have extra Tcl mailing lists with
the ASF, even if there were more of us - we already have a Tcl
community elsewhere. From what I've seen, the Python community at
large is pretty good, too.
