A few years ago we've been much better at talking about things and
coming to a conclusion. Nowadays I have the feeling "the community"
is fragmented too much. With some people avoiding mailing-lists like
the plague, some people lurking on IRC only, other people preferring
web based forums, others addressing topics in personal blogs or during
hallway meetings (and similar face-to-face situations).
I have this same feeling. I think we need to fix it; do you have any
thoughts or ideas as to how?
If people hate email lists in general (or the number of messages posted
to them), it cannot be fixed.

As a first step, I suggest clearing up the intended usage of "devel" list.
There's too much traffic on that list. 792 messages so far in October.
Openly said, I find your attitude disturbing.

Open Source development requires open minds, which comprises open and occasionally heated controversial discussions. Hidding away in ivory towers, bunkers and closed circles is not the spirit can be open source development is based on.
