<p>And the lists have different audiences. tb-planning includes
the community, whereas maildev is strictly for developers and
code topics.</p>

</p>
<p>Exactly.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We need a place where we can discuss code and development
related subjects that affect the whole project and not just a
specific bug. We had a few of those, and they were important to
discuss among the developers. Bugzilla is not suited for that.<br>

<p><br>
</p>
<p>And not all devs follow all discussion on tb-planning. For
high-level development discussions, it's important to reach the
key developers.<br>

<p>ditto</p>

<p><tt>I second Jörg's motion to keep maildev, for the same
reasons that Jörg mentioned.</tt></p>
<p>However, I wouldn't mind, if it was moved to topicbox as
tb-dev, as long as we have a permanent archive of it.</p>
