Although it is convenient for the poster to have the question answered
on the dev list, I wonder if that is the best approach overall.

The disadvantages of not referring the poster to the user list are several:

- other users don't benefit from the thread
- the dev list is cluttered with the off-topic threads
- the poster may continue to use the dev list rather than the user
list/forum where there are lots more potential responders

+1 to all of the above. Unfortunately it's not possible to already redirecting to the user list during moderating. I would guess at least 80% of user topics here are moderated in. Didn't we discuss mechanisms to restrict postings to dev@ a couple of months ago?


Just a thought.
