Further idea:

http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo

The descriptions for this list are not very, err... descriptive. Some 
have none at all & others just requote themselves: eg

*Geocoding* <http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/geocoding> - 
Discussion of geocoding.

Well, yes, precisely :)

Seeing this is one of the first thing a newbie is likely to come across 
when trying to find help I think it needs to be more helpful.
