On "dev@" you will find developers (I hope ;-)), but discussing features is a little bit off topic there. >> Of course basically you can discuss features on every list, wether this >> is useful or not depends on with whom you want to talk.

A few developers are also subscribed to "discuss" (like me) and try to participate in some discussions if time permits. The problem with this list sometimes was the large amount of off topic posts, so many developers left and didn't come back. I can't judge whether this will change in the near future.
