I think the concern here was in adding further volume to the dev list, which should be primarily about just that, 'Development'. And EDU could be an opt-in list. EDU is a wonderful initiative, however the more non-dev related content we poor into dev, the more we pester the core development population and dilute the purpose of the list. Besides, us Edu/Marketing people are nothing without the devs focused on building an awesome product :).
