Which is not a drawback but exactly how it's supposed to be. When any proposal for change reaped sufficiently to actually make a decision, the ML being subject to such change will receive a note about such decision making process pending (though you don't seriously assume that users reading both ML wouldn't spread the word in the ML that's subject to change). Until then the topic is off topic for the dev ML and no user of that dev ML will complain. But the whole topic is already moot. Jaromil explained that there's already a dev-ML and that it's closed (guess why ;-D ) and so the "segregation of developers" you try to avoid is already an established fact. Nevertheless this whole "segregation" thing is nonsense since you can't force devels to read a noisy irrelevant ML, no matter what you do. Multiple ML are about keeping stuff on topic in each of them. Nobody can guarantee any devel will read a single post in any of them. But chances they do are the higher the better the S/N ratio aka "on-topic". /j
