Interesting discussion ... I think I do understand all your reasons,
although they aren't fundamentally different.

Same is true for a topic like UX (User Experience). You have to collect
material for UX, you have to discuss issues within UX, it is required to
kick-off activities from UX (e.g. collect tiny usability issues). But on
the other hand, it is extremely important to keep in touch with
development - to be consulted, to understand the other persons'
problems, ...

So I think we'll end up with different infrastructure bits for each of
the teams. But if it is about collaboration, we shouldn't be that far
away from each other - may it be working in small teams or being located
on the same mailing list.

Somehow, we have to bridge that gap ...

Cheers,
Christoph
