Comment (by atagar):

 > Please have a look at the brainstorm dump from 30C3 currently on the
 wiki.

 Yup, I've been keeping an eye on it. I'm curious to see where it goes. I
 have a vested interest in a few of the pages like the volunteer section,
 after all. :P

 > Do you really think discussing the best way to organize content on the
 website is related to what is usually discussed on tor-dev?

 Sure. Don't see why not.

 > Or the other way around, do you think that the web designers who want to
 help us build a better website will be interested by discussions related
 to patches for tor, TBB, or Stem? The main idea is to bring new volunteers
 on board.

 The list doesn't get overly much traffic so it's simple to pick and chose
 the topics you're interested in.

 Just my two cents but I suspect a dedicated list will hamstring rather
 than help your efforts to get new volunteers involved for a few reasons...

 1. This project doesn't yet have a dedicated, core development community.
 Being exposed on tor-dev@ will likely get input (and maybe even direct
 involvement) from more people giving it a better chance of taking off.

 2. Volunteers like to be acknowledged for their work. A dedicated list
 will limit this project's visibility and pretty much guarantee that no one
 will know you folks are even thinking about a new site.

 3. Being part of the general development list will better foster the
 feeling of being part of the project. They might not read the other
 threads, but they'll at least have some notion that they're part of a
 wider, active development community.

 If this project really takes off and spawns hundreds of emails then I
 agree we should think about making a separate list for it. Until then,
 however, I think limiting its exposure would be unwise.

 Cheers! -Damian
