We really shouldn't go in that direction: the openstack-dev list is
already an aggregator of topics, since we use "mailman topics" on it.
Indeed, mailman topics are very powerful. The current topics for
openstack-dev are listed on each subscriber's personal page:
http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/openstack-dev
As a subscriber of openstack-dev I can decide to receive only messages
tagged for a topic by selecting the ones I'm interested in. As a writer
of a message I can tag it by adding the topic to the subject line of the
message.
For example, if I want to receive only messages for Nova, I can
subscribe to the Nova topic at the link above. When I write a message
about nova I have to add '[Nova]' (or 'Nova') anywhere in the subject.
Creating a topic of bare-metal is easy, using topics is a matter of
habit. I believe that we should not create more lists unless strictly
necessary. I also understood from David that the baremetal group felt
very strongly against using any of the existing list, even when I
suggested to use topics. I'm glad we're having this conversation now and
I'm open to any outcome.
