No, that is the purpose of the support mailing list.

The consulting list has to be business-centric or it has no value at all.
So hiding away business topics is counter-productive for this list.

IMHO, this list badly needs a clear intent and distinction.  A summary
and/or bullet list that is directly visible on
http://drupal.org/mailing-lists.  "A mailing list for Drupal consultants and
Drupal service/hosting providers." says nothing at all.

btw: The same applies to #drupal-consultants on IRC.

Let's come up with such a definition.

Thanks,
Daniel
