Somehow, I remembered creating a mailing-list a while ago with the very
wide charter of "Talk about interesting software engineering related
things".

I found that list: I called it "The Software Bistro" and I created in 2006.

Here is the charter I defined back then:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/software-bistro/6M58iC0ZoD0

Surprisingly, it's still pretty accurate (can't believe I suggested Scala
as a topic of interest back in 2006 :-)).

Anyway, if you feel like you'd be interested in being part of such a group
and participating, feel free to join:
