Hello,

I think a valid point (which I certainly hold) is that for those of us 
who would really like to be able to get stuck in and help in some way it 
would be very useful to be able to sit in and observe the discussions 
between the core developers. I'm not yet educated enough in the ways of 
Gentoo to be able to help in a meaningful way, but the more information 
I can absorb the quicker I and others will get there.

Can we have the list made open to subscription by anyone, even if 
posting is reserved for the core team?

Cheers,

Andy
