Oh, OK. I was just going by the "Let's become root!" proposal made by
Oliver Tappe here...
//www.freelists.org/post/haiku-development/Lets-become-root-was-Re-Berlios

Since nobody seemed to oppose running mailing lists in any of the follow
up messages, I simply thought that was what you guys were going with.
Anyway, staying with Freelists seems a good choice too; one less service
to worry about. :)

Unfortunately, it is hard to reach any conclusions from such vagueness.
If the developers ever reach a consensus on this, then we will change
the website accordingly. In the meantime, we can only keep the (vague)
status quo and you guys can deal with third party development inquiries
on a case by case basis as they come into the various lists.
Cheers,
