Ah ha, then yeah, some of our devs come from the list, and if it becomes more technical by shuffling non-technical discussions elsewhere (mostly), it might help to filter out good candidates for new devs. Course, the mailing lists alone aren't the only source; I've picked up devs straight off IRC, and I know of others who came on board solely through bugzilla contributions. So there are many alternatives.
