Shouldn't there be a cocoa-talk mailing list?

Am I the only one who thinks that there should be a separate mailing list, cocoa-talk, to which we could farm off the kinds of long-running off-topic threads that we've been seeing here lately and which have been massively reducing the signal-to-noise ratio on cocoa-dev?

The official cocoa-dev page says:

The Cocoa Development list is for discussions regarding native Mac OS X application development using the Cocoa Frameworks: Foundation and Application Kit.

(http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/cocoa-dev)

Clearly, we've been ranging far outside of this range off late, and the sheer volume of off-topic postings is starting to reduce the value of the list.

How about a concerted effort to keep things on topic, and conduct discussions in the appropriate forums?

Cheers
Greg
