I don't think there is a need for a new mailing list for this topic.
Rather, I suggest employing an existing list that we have for larger
architecture issues. Info on the list is available at:

https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/architecture-discuss

I would encourage folks interested in this topic to participate in the
discussion on the architecture-discuss list.

Brian
