Well you could, but it may just end up like this. This is the non
technical list, koha-devel is the technical list, but you can't
control what people post where, nor who answers what, there are over
2000 people subscribed to his list, only a fraction of whom are
technically minded.

Unfortunately we can't compell them to answer, maybe offer a cookie
next time ? :)

(Note this whole thread is non technical :))
