Oh. Well…
There isn’t an Apple mailing list for it. Perhaps the developer forums
(deveforums.apple.com) might have an area appropriate if you have
access).
But mostly you’d need to rely on the doc, providing feedback, and
perhaps something like StackOverflow or the like.
Not as straightforward as the original answer, sorry.

Actually, I was more interested in learning where questions about
UTIs would go (it's not clearly a Cocoa topic), not where advocation
of UTI over any other file association system would go.

I’m not aware of any that would be appropriate.
So please take it elsewhere. The comments on that article, Twitter,
where ever. But this isn’t the place for it.
Thanks

As a result, most of their conclusions are incorrect as well.
If you can't set the UTI differently on two files with the same
type code and extension, it can't serve as a creator code.
I've been wondering about this. Daring Fireball carried some
links with some strong criticisms on this, and I've been waiting
for them to pick up on AI article, but so far they haven't. I'm
just waiting for the dust to settle.
It seems to me that this isn't Cocoa-related, so it's really off-
topic...
Sadly, there doesn't appear to be a good mailing list for these
topics. The only other one where it might fit is xcode-users, but
it isn't an Xcode specific topic either.
It seems there needs to be another mailing list where topics such
as these (plist files, UTIs, etc.) which cover more misc. Mac &
iPhone related topics can be discussed and be clearly on topic -
of course, the downside is that nearly everyone reads Cocoa-Dev
and Xcode-users now and may not choose to read a third mailing
list, so if someone wanted their question answered, what would
they do? Probably post to cocoa-dev and then duck.
Perhaps the best solution is for a moderator to step in real quick
and make it clear where discussions such as these belong (again?).
