[WikiEN-l] A quiet, peaceful email list for experienced en contributors?

Hi all,
  I notice that lately this mailing list seems to be almost overrun
with a lot of noise: complaints about blocking, diatribes about
perceived wrongs, requests of various kinds. Whereas what I would
really like is a place where the most committed and experienced
Wikipedians can discuss more serious issues in a bit of depth: where
the project is going, recurring problems at a more abstract level,
general issues more distilled than "omg [[foo.com]] is so crap!" etc.

Is there such a list, or place to talk? Is there interest in creating one?

There is certainly a need for the current list, to allow such
day-to-day discussions to take place, but somewhere to escape the
noise and engage in a bit of deeper reflection would be nice.

Any ideas?

Steve
