    <p>Perhaps it would be useful to simply have all discussions on the
      wiki-page? It would have to be organized better (not quite sure
      how well that is possible?) I've had a lot of parallel discussions
      that jump from email to wiki and back to email.</p>
    <p>Also, surely it is possible to have the RFC/tagging only list not
      allow reply to at least not have discussion fracture at that
      point?<br>

        the cross-posting.  Since we use a wiki template for proposals,

                    <div>I dislike the fact that RFC and voting
                      announcements are mixed with general discussion on
                      the tagging list.  I think many people prefer not
                      to subscribe to the list because it is high
                      volume, but would be interested in subscribing to
                      a list that only has RFC/vote announcements.  I
                      would be in favor of a separate mailing list that
                      people could subscribe to for just those
                      announcements.  The key would be moderating that
                      list in such a way that only announcements are
                      posted there while discussion still happens on
                      tagging in the usual way.</div>

              <div>I also like the idea of a RFC / Voting list but can
                see that it would raise some problems as well.</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>You'd have to post to 2 separate lists to say "RFC on
                this proposal", then discuss it on the tagging list as
                well as the talk page, & probably also on the RFC
                list as well, because somebody will invariably make a
                comment on there :-(</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>& then somebody will get cross, & vote No
                because you didn't respond to their comment, which has
                been buried in a mass of others :-(</div>
