IMO, the difference is that QA is very closely tied to development as
a whole, and I would be sorry to see QA concerns separated into their
own list.  Anything that touches code, including testing, should be
discussed on koha-devel, and we should continue our trend of involving
*everybody* in QA.

Translations are a little different, as except for scheduling,
translators can mostly do their own thing without having to closely
interact with code contributors.

I agree that koha-zebra ought to be closed and discussions about Zebra
directed to the general or development list.

Regards,

Galen
