But we also have the "council" list, which is a discussion list, and
doesn't have -discuss in its name.

So maybe we could have this rule :
- [teamname]-discuss@ for team discussion lists
- [teamname]-[bugs,commits,reports...]@ for other team lists
- [something]@ for general discussion lists about some topic

So if we say dev is the general developement mailing list discussion
(not only for packagers team), then it could be dev at ml.mageia.org.

What do you think ?
