Yes - it is my understanding that the traffic on Openembedded-private is really private (I believe that OpenEmbedded is now legally registered as a non-profit in Germany and I should imagine there are certain discussions which need a degree of privacy). Openembedded-devel is currently planned to be the list for all technical discussions of the use and development of OE.
