You're absolutely right, and I apologise for adding to the volume -- I
should have just emailed the proponent directly.
But then maybe the idea of a debian-socialize list or the like would
be a good idea: have the intention announced on -devel and move the
negotiations to -socialize. Then one only need subscribe to
-socialize when something of personal interest is happening. Or maybe
we could have a -socialize announce list....
Then again, would we need to lists: -socialize for the Yanks and
-socialise for the Pommes? ;-)
