I still don't see how this would be a better place than bugzilla. If
you want to discuss why someone is forking a package, you have to do
it on a per-package basis. Having a single thread on a mailing list
discussing 100+ different packages is impractical and indeed starting
100 different threads on a mailing list is also impractical.
It's clear (to me anyway) your current approach has no realistic chance
of getting results.
You have to start somewhere. I'd suggest initiating (constructive!)
dialog one package at a time (or by similar pkgs in groups whatever).
