Please don't shoot me for asking:

Could we have an ikiwiki mailing list?

Here's an example use case: I want to discuss building a feature. Such discussion could happen on the wiki, but I would prefer to---at the least---be able to email ikiwiki developers and ask them to participate in this particular discussion.

Does this sound okay?

People ask for this from time to time, but I personally prefer not to be on an ikiwiki mailing list, because limiting public ikiwiki discussion to this wiki helps make ikiwiki a better platform for discussion. So some (most?) active ikiwiki people subscribe to recentchanges, or to the todo/bugs/forum feeds, or to some other feed they create on their user page. And there's work on making the discussion pages more structured, on accepting comments sent via mail, etc. --[[Joey]]
