Improving situation on mail list is the same as Peter mentioned as changing

To post transcript is minor problem, bigger is where.
1) opensuse is already overloaded and thread about meeting will make this
worse, and probably get lost in the volume.
2) Is this list appropriate? Looking at the topic it is, but I can see many
posts, and OT discussions, effectively trashing this list too.
3) New one called meetings? Can be this one made moderated?
