Henri (list moderator for koha-dev) can possibly clarify, but the 
developer list pretty clearly says it's for developers. If we wanted to 
do anything there, it could be to moderate who joins the developer list.

If there was more general Koha talk then we could have a talk list & a 
support list - but it doesn't seem like there is enough of that?

There is a bit of a catch 22 here. Adding another list does just make 
for more lists to monitor if you're one of the question answerers, 
rather than question askers :-)

If it's useful to the developers to try and separate out the various 
streams I'm happy to setup a Koha support mailing list and we can copy 
everyone from koha list onto koha-support as well, and then folks can 
opt out at will. There will still be a lot of the tech archives on the 
koha list, so we might not get a "clean break".

Cheers
Rachel
