I, for one, am not. I would prefer to separate most bug discussions from the rest of emacs-devel discussion. If there were a merge to be made, I would prefer that it be emacs-pretest with bug-gnu-emacs - but perhaps that could lead to confusion. I might be a minority of one on this, however. You are right that most people in the previous discussion were in favor of merging emacs-pretest with emacs-devel.
