I don't think there needs to be a different mailing list in order to combine or discuss other OS's use of the device tree compiler. The DTC is OS and Use-agnostic. Discussions of DTC needs for FreeBSD can happen right here as the orginal purpose of this list was DTC discussion. Are you, and Grant(?), suggesting that a separate list should be created for FreeBSD use of DTS-file contents? Or that DTS-file-content related discussions should be separated from DTC discussions? > imho, the goal is to not have any project tied to a specific version > of the devicetree. > > iow, we don't break backwards compatibility in the > devicetrees, and projects should revert to default behavior if new dt > parameters are missing.

The devicetree source file format hasn't changed in years. Yes, it is enhanced, but compatibly. Or do you mean the contents of the DTB for some specific platform?
