is dev to broad? perhaps lindev at trilug.org might help keep the focus
squarely on Linux development and not deal with, say, Python on win32 or
other unix OS.

I agree that Trilug should help out developers.  That is a primary goal when
the group was formed.

I'm all for setting up a list to enhance opensource development (on Linux of
course!).  How about calling it Dev at trilug.org?
