That was indeed the plan:

http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-users/2009-February/000969.html

Even before this, there were many people asking questions on
openembedded-users that either got bad, miss-leading or no answers
because of a lack of experienced / knowledgeable people on that list. I
don't think that the community around OE has grow/matured enough to make
resurrecting that list a good idea.
