IMO, this is quite relevant for -current. The problem is that there are lots of discussions in -current that really belong in -hackers, but that don't end up there because there is too much noise in -hackers. An option may be a moderated technical list, to have a more or less noise-less forum for technical discussions, freeing -current for the strict -current issues (as opposed to architectural discussions etc).
