In Debian Med we have such a list which is open for user problems.  It
is a good idea to involve users into discussion about tasks layout.
Also the list is a good entry point for future developers who are just
seeking a first contact.  The main issue is to form a community around
the multimedia topic inside Debian.  Sometimes you can not predict what
mails such a list might see.
