It's a cool idea, and if a host for the groups could be found would be really interesting. Searching past postings would be made simpler.
But I worry a bit about the 'German-only groups' idea. I think the majority of the people on the lists are german, and there is a danger that important threads would take place on these german groups and the rest of the world would be excluded. Given that german is perhaps a priority on the list, perhaps there are other solutions? Bilingual postings, where possible? Or FAQ maintainers could maintain a german version, including recent important information?
