Comment(by erinn):

 Sorry for not replying before, I actually didn't see any of arma's
 comments. So, in my own words, even though you're sold:

 I think that longer-term, tor-qa will also be the right list for
 discussing broken builds, and its existence could in theory attract QA-
 minded people who come across our list of lists and want to subscribe to
 random things. And I think it will be a good list for sending automated
 stuff too, which I definitely feel is inappropriate for the existing
 culture of tor-talk and would annoy most of the entrenched userbase there.

 And even if hardly anyone replies, at least Mike and I have a more public
 (and archived) place to do nothing at all but discuss the various ways
 things are broken and can be improved, from a development/QA standpoint.
 Then we can point people at links.

 I want a public mailing list though. I want people to be able to sign up
 and lurk and pitch in the second they feel they have something valuable to
 add. I am adamantly opposed to anything even vaguely closed (except for a
 case where 'closed' means 'subscriber-only' although ideally we would be
 able to keep it open where subscription was not required for
 participation).
