I think it's a nice initiative, and I certainly thank those links. They are
interesting and talk about things that I guess some of us think about.

During our talk, Enrico suggested how a publicly accesible and archived
mailing list as open as this might raise concerns on the people, though. I
wonder whether people feel comfortable commenting those kind of things,
here, or if Enrico might be right.

Greetings,
