It is much more efficient to communicate in person (preferably physically, but can be phone, IM, chat, etc.) than to write semi-anonymous mails to public list. There's no decision that would be taken unannounced, and all CVS is public of course, but I see no point of making public each minute detail of each private discussion. Especially that most of that, until some kind of common ground is reached, is of no particular use to others. That's like requiring people to commit code to CVS every 5 minutes, even if it's not finished.
because it's impossible to discuss anything on internals without the noise coming from "outside"..? Could we finally make this list read-only for every one but the @php.net people? I get enough spam already, spam from this list is not something everyone should suffer from.
That's not the spam question. Talking directly to the person(s) is and would always be better than sending mails to a public list, from a ton of aspects. I see no reason to close the list, but I wouldn't expect all the discussions to happen *only* on the list. Of course, important things need to be discussed on the list, and they are.
