While I *personally* do not have a problem with the current situation I agree with Sylvestre that currently [email protected] is not kind of missing link between developers and users. Because I think we should establish such a place and this list seems to be a good candidate it might be reasonable to move pure packaging related questions to the Alioth list. However, I do not see a practical way to force this policy on list members. So writing it explicitely down in the Debian Science policy document and kindly directing people to the other list might be a good idea but there is no way to forbid packaging questions here.
