I can understand the need to reduce meaningless spams on the dev list, but seems like general rejection of posts from non-developers would distract the idea of this being an open mailing list: a list that one can’t post to effectively decays to something like a bulletin board, and obviously the developing process shouldn’t be kept in a showcase, which would greatly discourage people who are not part of the dev team, yet still wanting to get involved in the discussing, maybe even decision-making.
