Mostly because the dev list is where the dev team feels free to bicker, mostly about what to name methods (like fireEvent, no, wait, triggerEvent, no, wait...). If it were public we'd perhaps be less frank with each other. We aren't hiding secrets but rather ensuring that we behave, in public, with a professional rapport that, as "coworkers" on the project, we don't enforce upon each other when talking amongst ourselves.
