This would be for potential packager apprentices or others to easily contact all 
members the mentoring coordinator team.
So one of us can respond quickly, mostly to update our packages_mentoring wiki 
page.  (Which will be ready in the next few days.)
We could also use it to discuss among ourselves, which we now do by private email.
So it wouldn't be of general interest.  We wouldn't want those outside our group 
responding to messages received, like in a public mailing list.
(The group might include a few outside our team.)
(It could include mentors, but they will see useful info on our wiki page.)
A restricted-access mailing list should work.

So it boils down to whatever is easiest, I guess.
pmentoring-coord at group.mageia.org ?
pmentoring-coord at ml.mageia.org ?

Your call :)
