No problem, we might as well take a stab at it. However, my experience here is of deadlock, not resolution. Deadlock characterized by sterile repetition of fixed positions.
Great. One of us should ask the techies to get it set up.
[To Alex] Entire revolutions can occur the wiki without coming to a user's
attention. A mailing list devoted to dispute resolution would focus attention, even if all it did was point to significant on wiki discussions. The functionaries list and, presumably the arbitration list already do this. A dispute resolution list would clue everyone in, not just functionaries and arbitrators.
Indeed. Ostensibly, the list would deal with not just specific dispute resolutions, but with dispute resolution itself - how it works, etc. These concepts haven't changed much since late 2003, and as such there may need to be adjustments - people have ideas I'm sure. And of course, dealing with both specific cases and with general concepts in the same context makes it a bit of an integration issue. And that's another answer for Alex's question - integration based on a particular concept. If the concept was Electric Trains, then of course a separate mailing list wouldn't be justified.
