I'd say the Wiki.  Are there also email comments?  Where?

The proposal to rename on-error to on-exception deserves
consideration -- though I'm not sure which word is more familiar to
the people we expect will write TAL.

The idea that the default text would be a nice thing to substitute for
an error is interesting -- but that's not necessarily the right thing
in all cases (the dummy text is for the designer).  Could it be an
option?
