Hmm... three possible approaches come to my mind:
Approach 1:
1. Someone writes down an initial draft/rfc for a guideline on the wiki 
and notifies the others via mailing list
2. We use the talk page and/or comments directly in the draft to discuss 
and finalize the draft

Approach 2:
1. Someone writes down an initial draft/rfc for a guideline on the wiki 
and notifies the others via mailing list
2. We discuss the draft on the mailing list
3. Someone edits the Wiki draft with the results of the discussion on 
the mailing list

Approach 3:
1. Someone writes an initial draf/rfc and sends it to the mailing list
2. We discuss and finalize it on the mailing list
3. Someone puts the final version up on the wiki

Each approach has its own pros and cons. I think our preference mainly 
depends on how comfortable we are with wikis vs. emails.

Not sure if this is necessary. I think the notifications guideline can 
be put up immediately once we've agreed on a final draft.

However we do have to look at existing guidelines before we decide 
whether we want to restructure them according to Heiko's proposal.
