I am coming 180 on this idea of lists, I think the fewer the best. The
pulverization of lists, will actually weaken marketing efforts. I would hate
to come to a project and have to sign to 10 based on my gender, language,
location, race, specialty, etc just to find that I am the only one on that
list. The more people we can get on a single efforts the best it could be. I
dont see any conflict having efforts happening in 10 different countries all
being solved withing one unique list.

As opposed to forum topics, lists are dividers, as opposed to a global
search on a forum that could go across different topics, on a list, you are
restricted to your inbox search and usually just go through that specific
list.
