And also byfollowing the default is open method, that's why we decided to make a mailing list on our own, to discuss about any issues on the magazine with all the users. And we don't limit the discussions to bugs on the magazine only, but to bring all discussions regarding the magazine on this list. And we also want our visitors (and developers ofc) to communicate with us (stuff) in a way. And not having them contacting the marketing list ;)
I don't understand the problem with contacting the marketing list. Can you perhaps make it clear to me how magazine-related discussions are not marketing-related and why they should be separate?
I don't think that making this list is "a too much". And needless to say that any major changes on the magazine will be forwarded on the marketing list so everyone can comment(eg. Fedora calendar). We don't want to separate the magazine from the marketing team. ;)
I'm not talking only about major changes, though - I'm talking about any general discussion.
The magazine should be a core part of the marketing effort, IMHO. Having it require two lists seems counter-intuitive to that.
PS: the idea was discussed on our weekly meeting and no one disagreed with that.
Unfortunately, I was unable to make the meeting due to being in new hire orientation, or I would have disagreed. This is one of the reasons I like Apache's approach of taking decisions on the mailing list and having a 72-hour window to discuss things... by default, there's always someone who can't make a meeting due to time zone issues, work commitments, etc.
