Let me dig around for that ring, I know it's somewhere...

Joking aside though; All the different lists and channels made sense
when there were different stacks and independent components. This is not
really the case anymore though, and will become all the more less so in
the future.

I often worry when I suggest someone go somewhere for help that the
right person who *could* have helped them is not in the given channel or
list. I think it would benefit the community to have one channel and one
list.
