Well, our current approach is to use g.d.o group posts in the Drupal

Yes and no.
I agree with Daniel's concern that too much of this is happening in
closed venues, often with the claim that it's the only way to get
things done. And I think even you, Gabor, share a bit of this concern
based on your tweet from three hours ago -

I won't say the mailing list is the right place, but I do think it's
important to consider more perspectives than simply the insider
groups. In my opinion the best way to do that is to have discussions
out in the open.
From personal observation I believe Greg Dunlap is spending a
significant effort on seeking and synthesizing feedback and I
encourage everyone to do the same.

For the WSCCI initiative I also have been having most architectural
discussions on the WSCCI g.d.o group, or if they happen in IRC or at a
camp or similar posting summaries to the group afterward. (Not always
immediately, but as soon as I am able.) Pretty much the entire history
for the past year+ is documented there. The landing page of the group
is not as useful as I'd like, I agree, which is on my todo list to fix.
The CMI sprint last week was very productive, and we have a writeup with
the results that is in progress. It should be going live in the next
day or two. We wanted to get a good night's sleep before sanity
checking it for release. :-)
I don't believe that simply dumping everything from all five initiatives
to this list would be a constructive way to communicate, unless it is
used only for announcement purposes with links off to g.d.o (since that
and the issue queues are all we've got right now).
