There might be non-committers subscribed to dev@, too, e.g. people that just donated a plugin and our now probing our interest. I could imagine that those people are not that much interested in *all* our JIRA traffic.

so what would yet another list that you have to subscribe to give?

Easier browsing/searching of archives. Currently, real discussions are drowned by JIRA notifications:
  http://www.nabble.com/mojo---dev-f11981.html

People might find that acceptable, I personally just don't see the need to make life harder than necessary and require my poor eyes or some other post-filtering to separate out stuff that could have been separated upfront.

You still read the issues, don't you? Tapping "read" for the couple of issues that might not relate to your plugin is to me less of a hassle than having developers that ignore the issue list.

In addition it is an important aspect of the Mojo project in particular that we are a bunch of developers with very varying levels of knowledge of Maven (some are core developers, other have just written a plugin that they want to host) and we all need to help each other out.

Absolutely, but I don't see right now how this would change by having a dedicated list for JIRA.

Because then they're only going to subscribe to the list without all the "noise" and risk loosing *critical* information about bugs in their plugin.
