No, you can't. I don't support any proposal for a new mailing list for
dispute resolution. However, I won't object to one for discussion
*about* DR (that's the difference between consensus and unaminity -
for consensus you just need people to not object, for unanimity you
need their support). I do object to a mailing list where DR is
actually intended to happen.
