A good place to see a summary of the broad community work is the annual Linux

usually well covered on LWN.net.
The most general list and lowest traffic is: linux-fsde...@vger.kernel.org
MD team list is: linux-r...@vger.kernel.org
The device mapper team list is: dm-de...@redhat.com
Each local file system has its list:

These are all upstream mailing list none specific to the distribution
so perhaps it's time for you guys within the Fedora distribution to
unite under such list so other developers, user and alike can contact
you and other interested parties that might be subscribed to that
list with heads up for changes like the one that Anaconda made...
It might be useful to have a storage list for Fedora, but I'm on the
fence.
I'm on fedora-devel, fedora-kernel, and the anaconda lists already.
I'm in #fedora-devel, #fedora-kernel, and #anaconda on IRC too.
It's not clear to me that the root cause for low communication on this
change was "too few lists."
Now that I've actively searched for it, I do find, deep in a thread
about "partitioning expectations for F18," a tester who was surprised
by the change back in August. The surprise makes me think it probably
wasn't well communicated to anyone, originally. For example, not
communicated to the fedora test lists, even though they existed.
(I'm not on _that_ list, so if I'm wrong, please forgive me).
I also found your "Does this mean we can ( finally ) disable lvm and
related services by default" comment in that thread, which gives me a
little better context for your passion on this topic. ;)

Maybe having a fedora specific file & storage, low traffic list would be a great
way to get focused, cross team exchanges.
I certainly have enough email to drown in, but this could be actually a positive
thing....
