There was not direct mention of mailing list, but previous posts mentioned that they did not see the use of the Wiki. Wikis are a better way of collaboration. You can see how every major Open Source project have put in place a wiki for this purpose.
From past experience, I've been able to find most information I need about GCC by going directly to the main website and lookin up in the left section (that changed last couple of week, but that is a different story).
I do agree with you that maybe certain things could be done in the front page to access the information faster. This is always the goal. Probably improvement to the links can be done. Bill has pointed out that the wiki has an index in the frontpage. I did not know that and it is very useful. Maybe it should be place in another place, more visible in the frontpage. Also, including a Search label, for the label text box, maybe people miss it some times. I just wanted to comment in the importance of the Wiki and the great work that the axiom-developer wiki is.
