I have responded to the question posed on the talk page [1]. For those interested in this issue, please join the discussion there. One of the big points of feedback from the en:wp community is that too much discussion happens in places like mailing lists and wikis outside of WP where few Wikipedians engage. We are responding to this feedback by centering discussions in open places on WP (while not ignoring the lists by any means).
