I understand Sebastian's and Bastian's point: as long as the current
list shows low traffic, there is no need to create additional lists -
so, "dev" and "install" make no sense at this point in time.
However, I suspect if we do not offer appropriate channels for asking
questions and getting involved in languages which are definitely
"active", Bernd's point re 'secret' places is a valid point.
The "newsletter" subscription form Sebastian pointed out is a great
idea, but it is not the same as an "announcement" mailing list as the
community is used to:
http://neos.typo3.org/contact.html
As soon as I see a page, where someone asks for my email address and
does not provide any further details, that's "suspicious". I miss
essential information such as:
- a statement what happens with my email address
- a link where I can unsubscribe
- an archive of previous published newsletters to see, if is worth to
subscribe
Maybe I missed something? :-)
Back to my original proposal... how about the following (shortened list):
Neos-announcement
Neos-english
Neos-german
...where "Neos-english" is the current "Neos" list (if renaming is an
option of course).
Cheers
Michael
