Things are discussed before implementation (or should be ;)) on the
general list. I'm not really for creating another list for this only
topic, because it will only rely on the traffic related to the rules,
which means that most of the time it will be quiet, at least as long as
we don't have several people fully working on it. Also, the traffic on
adonthell-general isn't that huge - and all the general information that
is dispatched there is of interest for any developer. I think a
developer should be listening and commenting on any topic, and not only
the part he's thinking about. Some other ideas could interfere with what
has been thought so far - this could lead to problems later.

All in all, I think it's much more interesting for everybody to
participate/be aware of what's going on with the game, and not only
being closed to a specific part. Too many lists would lead to this
state, I fear.

Anyway, welcome (back) Nils! ;)

Alex.
