Well, I'm coming into this late, but it sure does seem to make sense to
me to try to get development related problem reports to the place where
the developers are at.  As a developer I wouldn't be reading stuff that
was not germaine to what I was trying to accomplish during the course of
the workday; time is too valuable.  I'd be concentrating on my, eh,
development mailing lists.
