[Cryptography-dev] Mailing lists (was: Re: pkcs12 to pkcs7)

[Hynek Schlawack]

I don’t think we have enough traffic on both to justify two channels.

let’s just go for #pyca and a mailing list pyca and add -dev variants if there’s a volume problem.

I’d also like to re-propose to get pyca.io <http://pyca.io/> as a shared TLD (pyca.org <http://pyca.org/> is for sale for $750 so if we all pitched in, we could also get that one :)).

The current list topic is "A list for discussing the development of cryptography libraries in python", which is more generic than I thought it was. That said, renaming it might be useful. Do we want the list to focus exclusively on development of said libraries or do we want to open it up to user questions?
