How about:
*) advertising this list more prominently, and giving a clear
description about what should be discussed here?
*) including on that page, the email addresses for the Red Hat
developers responsible for particular portions of the distribution, so that
people can communicate with them directly?
*) include a link to that page on the bottom of every email posted to this
list? (this is already done, but it bears repeating, since the new page would
look quite a bit different)
*) make the page HTTP not HTTPS
*) make the member list of this list available to everyone
*) make the archives of this list available to everyone
*) announcements on this list from particular maintainers, when new
packages are uploaded, along with changelogs and todo lists?
*) start developing a set of guidelines for outside developers, that will help
them contribute. Perhaps coding standards, standards for bug reporting, etc.
