That's why i'm proposing yet another separate mailing list.
I see the need. I also see the administrative overhead but I believe that should be solved by automatic team lists for the project's maintainers. (See my other posting in the thread.)
Thus, I'm certainly for a devel:languages:python mailing list, because it simplifies things for the people taking part in the project.
However, creating such a list manually, and even having discussions about the need, doesn't solve anything really and causes overhead that we should really get rid of. Not to forget, a conventional mailing list would require people to subscribe, or unsubscribe, in addition to them becoming maintainers of a project or packages - one step too much.
How about a mailing list for every devel group? kde, kernel, xorg etc they all map pretty good onto their respective devel groups already
It would be so nice to be able to reach the relevant people under a simple address. As an extreme example, try to reach the System:Base maintainers, and you end up composing mails with screen-fuls of To: header!
(Having said that, many issues around Python-related packages can (and often should) still be discussed on the general packaging list.)
