Ah, but you helped make my point! For the people working on CPython, python-dev is a natural place. But what about PyPy, IronPython, or Jython (toss in Cython or any future VMs and it just became an even larger spread of teams)? Do they naturally think to discuss things on python-dev or their own list? If anything this new list would act as a showing of good will that python-dev does not view CPython as the centre of the world when it comes to VMs (but obviously does for the language) and that the other VM authors' time as just as important by not forcing them to wade through python-dev (or have to set up a special filter just for python-dev to get the occasional email thread).
A bit late in the day and possibly the most stupid suggestion ever, but why not name python-dev cpython-dev? At least everybody would know where they stand.
