Most interesting (imho) discussions on this list are about the larger picture. "Individuals and interaction over process and tools" splitting a mailing list reduces interaction ;) And isn't it wonderful how a question about regexps triggers a team to standardize their language? Too bad if you miss that because the thread was on the other mailling list... I skip the Rails questions, mostly; but questions about too often needing "Given I am logged in as XYZ with roles A B C" contribute to discussions about GivenScenario and nested steps, i.e. helps driving the direction of our tools. (meaning that I could argue that rails related stuff should go to its own mailing list, but that I will not argue that; use delete-thread in your favorite mail progam instead.) I'd rather see people using topics like [Rails] my models and viewers are out of control! [Cucumber] I can not heckle the pickles [spec] it should do to allow people to filter automagically what they are not interested in. A little bit of discipline that should come easily when you wonder the entire day about the best specs and stories, and variable names, no?
