I suppose a list of active committers will prevent people who are no longer active from receiving emails they don't want to receive from those looking for help.. so it may stop dead end investigations?

In that way an up-to-date list of committers would be useful...

Also perhaps some other information could be tied in.. such as who are the experts on which blocks or areas within Cocoon, so people who are newer to it could find out very quickly where to get help, given that the state of the docs is still somewhat patchy. This would save a lengthy exploration of the mailing lists, and get names up in obvious public view (such as on our soon to be released new website :-) ).

Independent from the counter argument already given the Cocoon changes site [1] already gives this information in a more verbose way. Nobody needs to maintain this list explicitely and nobody might get the feeling that private mails are encouraged.
