Make it moderated for a months or two to enforce the target audience -- I suppose afterwards it will work without moderation if we are a bit careful and point people to the right list. * one "devel-users" list, which would be successor for fedora-qa, fedora-test and all those user questions or feature-requests we get on fedora-devel now. Note that developers that have problems like "is foo broken on rawhide" should post to this list as well. Just my 2 cent.
