Changing the subject slightly.... Do we need another mailing list?  Breaking
fedora-extras away from fedora-devel was very logical, but is breaking
packaging discussions away from extras-list necessary at this point in time?
How many people will want to be involved in extras-list but not packaging
and vice versa?

Perhaps this is tied to the manner in which packages will be requested from
now on.  If we use fedora-extras-list as presently, then it might be a good
idea to have separate lists for discussion of how to package vs packages we
want to include.  But if much of this is eventually going into a ticketting
system then is there really enough traffic on extras to make that necessary?
Was anything decided about this at FUDCon?

I'm not against a separate list per se, I just think that the traffic
doesn't justify needing a new list yet and the synthesis of keeping ideas
from these two lists together is still worthwhile.
