Ask HN: - Game Design Mailing Lists?

Hello All,

I am in the middle of developing a game, my first real game that has many pieces and I wanted to talk about some game design theory but I cannot find a mailing lists that seems appropriate. Google Groups seem to contain a lot of SPAM. StackOverflow is not the right place to ask, etc.

Can anyone point me to some mailing lists?

An idea of what is on my mind: 1. taking generic pieces of the game (level data) and making it a static library. 2. Generic OpenGL pieces as a single static library.

etc, etc...

Not a mailing list as such but there is a nice GameDev subreddit which is fairly active: http://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev

There is also the GameDev stack exchange: http://gamedev.stackexchange.com/
