It would be more beneficial to everybody if the discussions (related to release or Nutch) is done on public (hey this is open source!). The off the list stuff IMO smells.
+1 Folks sometimes wish to discuss project matters off-list to spare others the boring details, but this is usually a bad idea. All project decisions should be made in public on this list. Discussions relevant to these decisions are also thus best made on this list, since they explain the decision. Private discussions are permissible to develop a proposal, but that is usually better done on-list when possible, so that others can get involved earlier.
(The one notable exception is that personnel issues are discussed on the private PMC list.)
