Yes, I would find such a mailing list map of where to talk about what very
helpful. Not only to have something to point people to, but also for my
own reference (there are so many lists, I'm often in doubt where to send
something).

In particular, a more detailed explanation on what [email protected] should
be referenced for would be highly interesting. Unlike kde-multimedia et al.,
the name is not very illuminating since one does not know what "sys"tem is
being meant, whether one's problem affects that system, and whether it's
something the administrators of that system can fix or not (or whether I
can do it myself). What I know about sysadmin I found out by trial and
error. :-}
