So it is the place for posting patches, asking questions about the API, ... It is also the place where all the github spam goes to. rpm-ecosystem is a quite recently created list for discussing all aspects that affect the whole stack of rpm based software management. So while basically all rpm related topic fits there there is a special emphasis on topics that span multiple tools or distros. So changes to rpmbuild should probably go to rpm-maint while standard macros may be better suited for one or the other depending a bit on the macro and its scope. If you are unsure just use your best judgement. We'll forward the discussion to the proper list if it really makes too much of a difference.
