Most likely, if you propose your new mailing list (on the Haskell mailing list), the discussion will focus on whether it will be likely to gather enough posts to stay reasonably active. While the definition of "reasonably active" differs depending on the individual, it is likely to mean somewhere between an average of several posts per week to one or two per day. Your proposal will be more likely to pass if you can demonstrate a reasonably strong demand for active discussion in the Haskell community. Alternatively, it is possible to create a Haskell-related mailing list that is not hosted at haskell.org. Haskell-Art (see the haskell-art Info Page at http://lists.lurk.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-art and The haskell-art Archives at http://lists.lurk.org/pipermail/haskell-art/) is one example of such a list.

I'm interested in creating a list for iPhone development. While I also have an ongoing iPhone build target project, which I will be open-sourcing very soon, I'd like the list to be about Haskell on iPhone without regard to whether it has anything to do with my project.

Hi all,
I'm interested in starting a mailing list on haskell.org <http://haskell.org>. Who should I talk to about such things?
Is it a mailing list related to a project? Then you may request a project on community.haskell.org, then you can start a mailing list at yourproject@project.haskell.org
See <http://community.haskell.org/>.
