That's a different idea to the one I believe was originally proposed. I don't really object to your idea. I find it all too easy to stumble across drama as it is, so I'm not sure I see the benefit, but if people want to know where to go for the best drama, why not tell them?
I don't see Fred's ideas or insights as being particularly in conflict with the idea I proposed. In fact, as I proposed it, I didn't get into any particular details. I simply assumed that if people agreed on the general scope, they could also agree on the scope such a list might have.
Indeed, someone who might be interested in getting help for a particular edit conflict and might want to drop a note to the mailing list might like not getting their head bitten off by someone on this one.
