separate mailing list for HTML5 author guide

Hi guys

For a while now I've been wondering if the HTML WG needs a separate 
email address (mailing list) for the HTML5 authoring guide that Lachlan 
has been working on. The HTML5 authoring guide will be quite a large 
document when finished and I'm sure there will be lots of email 
discussion during it's development, so having a separate list makes good 
sense IMHO. I have often wanted to send in feedback but haven't because 
I didn't want to annoy the 400 members of the HTML WG by posting to 
public-html as often comments are for just minor typos or suggestions. 
Also, people often complain about the amount of emails coming through on 
public-html so if there was a separate mailing list for the authoring 
guide it would help to keep down the traffic on public-html. I also 
think that having a separate list would encourage discussion about the 
authoring guide.

I noticed that the [author-guide] prefix has been used in the subject 
line before when sending author guide related emails to public-html 
before, but I don't think it's that satisfactory because the whole group 
still gets the emails.

Here are some possible addresses that could be used:

public-html-author@
public-html-author-guide@


Thanks
