Yah, the newsgroup. The more eyes, the better.

Yeah. Technically, I would argue that this _is_ the proper place (it _is_ the
Phobos list after all), but not enough people pay attention to this list. Most
everyone that pays attention to any of the D newsgroups pays attention to the
main D newsgroup, I think. So, anything that we want to have high visibility
needs to go there, if it makes more sense organizationally for it to go
elsewhere.

I think the separation we have right now is a good one, worth maintaining.  
This list is highly focused on the core
developers and the raw mechanics of maintaining the code.  The newsgroups are 
more public and for more general
discussion.  If the phobos list grew more general and chatty, I'd want to see 
phobos-dev@ or something created to
re-isolate the mechanics parts.

My 2 cents,
Brad

Agreed. That stance still leaves library submissions to the newsgroup because they are of general interest. As a counterexample, a discussion about implementation policies inside the library would belong here.
