Why? Case in point: this thread! We have a person who is not sure which list to post a question, meanwhile the question "in question" remains unanswered. Great idea! And this isn't Python-specific. Let's merge all the world's mailing lists into one; you want to ask a question, you just post it! Doesn't matter what it's about, just ask it and the right people will see it and respond. This is awesome! I wonder if Thunderbird 5 was like that. ChrisA
