I also would be curious to see an example of committership votes conducted
on a public dev@ list.  I suspect (hope) that in a healthy community, this
would have an effect of forcing those discussions to become more civil and
constructive.  Maybe I'm naive to think this though.  :-)

I can't think of any other specific topics that I'd like to see assigned
to the private@ list by policy.  The more we push to the public dev@ list,
the better.
