Agree, and this is very much along conventional lines of list maintenance in
GNOME. I think some strong on-list voices of reason and sanity might be good
though - to a similar level of 'ownership' as maintainers have with software
modules?

At least to start with, let's be a little more pro-active about keeping list
discussions sane and on-topic.
