I might be wrong on this, but from my view is the list <span style="font-style: italic;">primary</span> intended for core development. <br><br>Secondly for generic topics through the entire Drupal module universe and heavy modules (think CCK, category or views).
<br><br>Thirdly comes the rest, which I would personally like to see more of in the future.<br><br>Another way to choose appropriate list is to ask yourself the following questions:<br><br>1) Is it drupal.org-related?<br>
1a) Is it the documentation?<br> <a href="mailto:documentation@drupal.org">documentation@drupal.org</a><br> 1b) Otherwise it's probably<br> <a href="mailto:webmasters@drupal.org">webmasters@drupal.org</a> or <a href="mailto:infrastructure@drupal.org">
infrastructure@drupal.org</a><br>2) DrupalCon?<br> <a href="mailto:drupal-con@drupal.org">drupal-con@drupal.org</a><br>3) Does it involve dealing with clients or business in general?<br> <a href="mailto:consulting@drupal.org">
consulting@drupal.org</a><br>4) Is your topic about theming?<br> <a href="mailto:themes@drupal.org">themes@drupal.org</a><br>5) Is it about how to customize your site?<br> <a href="mailto:support@drupal.org">support@drupal.org
</a><br>6) Will it result in code? Will someone else find that code useful?<br> <a href="mailto:development@drupal.org">development@drupal.org</a><br>7) Will it lead to discussion or an announcement touching Drupal core?

I have been reading this dev list for 18 months now, and I am still not<br>100% sure what questions will get you slapped down. I particularly<br>wonder about questions like Carl Mc Dade just asked - ei: I am writing<br>code that interacts with the core modules and found an unexpected
<br>behavior - is it a bug or intentional? I have interacted with other<br>open source projects in the past where they got very upset if I filed an<br>issue in ignorance, so I like to research before I file. Is this list
<br>an appropriate place for that research, or is this list intended to be<br>only for developers working on the core?<br><br>thanks,<br>-tao<br><br></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Regards,<br> Johan Forngren
