Just as Routing split out a list to discuss a complex but distinct  
subject there seemed to be enthusiasm to do the same for public  
transport.

There are more people starting to think about this subject now and we  
have a lots of design decisions to make which we will have to live  
with for a long time to come.

If people don't want to disinguish between the two then they can  
subscribe to both and direct them to the same folder. I will be  
creating a separate folder for talk-transit and may from time to time  
will tune out of 'talk' while maintaining interest in 'talk-transit'.
