The number of mailing lists has allready increased (PHP-DB, PHP-WINDOWS and so on) Most of the
trafic on these lists are either specific to a few extensions or user questions. The development
list (if we filter out most of the bug-messages) is where most of the development is discussed.

I think we still need the general list to make sure we are serving all supported platfforms/web
servers/...

I would like to see more team work arround specific issues (windows ISAPI stability, generalized
function naming core and extensions, improved OO just to mention a few). This could be dynamic
groups with a few key members to drive the effort.

The PHP Group could then take a more coordinating role and make sure all areas are covered etc.
