These are both private lists. The public alias is board gnome org,
which happens to go to board-list gnome org 

foundation-list and gnome-hackers are the public lists where you would
expect mails such as the one you sent April 6.

I think most people would generally agree, so didn't follow up to
argue. ;-)

Our concerns are more about how to get there, and that is a very
nontrivial question (and there are very different schools of thought
within the GNOME community, several of them well-developed). Also,
this clearly can't be something that only GNOME addresses, it's a
problem that spans all of free software.
