Ah, but you helped make my point! For the people working on CPython,<br>
python-dev is a natural place. But what about PyPy, IronPython, or Jython<br>
(toss in Cython or any future VMs and it just became an even larger spread<br>
of teams)? Do they naturally think to discuss things on python-dev or their<br>
own list? If anything this new list would act as a showing of good will<br>
that python-dev does not view CPython as the centre of the world when it<br>
comes to VMs (but obviously does for the language) and that the other VM<br>
authors' time as just as important by not forcing them to wade through<br>
python-dev (or have to set up a special filter just for python-dev to get<br>
the occasional email thread).<br>

A bit late in the day and possibly the most stupid suggestion ever, but why not name python-dev cpython-dev? At least everybody would know where they stand.<br>
