I'm not highly against it, but I think we already have too many

ACK.
That was my thinking in wanting to do this here (on imap5). But
because this list was chartered for a different purpose, there's
(reasonable) concern that there will be distractions in both
directions if we temporarily hijack it for this one.
I will probably propose to the IESG that we accept this as an
exception, and use the <[email protected]> list that's already
there. That fits better in its purpose, but puts a new WG mailing
list off of IETF premises. The IESG has stopped short of saying that
should never happen, but has a strong preference against it. So I
want everyone to be prepared in case we choose to create a new list.
Paul at IMC has transferred a number of lists over to IETF control. So
would it not make sense to create [email protected] and transfer over
ietf-imapext membership? Then we have one IETF controlled list going
forward.
