I'll stick my foot in my mouth and step on Ralph's toes and possibly
engage in other tired metaphors by commenting on this.  Before adding
the comment-in-question to the FAQ, I discussed with Ralph the question
"where can DHCP server-administrators discuss their problems" and he
answered dhcp-v4@bucknell.edu.

As is the spirit of all on-line forums, I would guess that if traffic,
confusion, and/or other reasons suggest that there ought to be two
separate discussions, then presumeably some kind soul will step forward
and volunteer to run an additional list.
