Hmm, why not combine them? So far, our lists have been split on activity type, not by code submodule. I think that's the right approach.
So, dev@ as a default, but with a strong focus on the Erlang side of things, marketing@ for everything from promotion through to brand, l10n@ for anything to do with translation, etc. Instead of having two front-end lists for different front-end projects, let's have one place for front-end people. That could be used for anything from Futon, Fauxton, our main website, or anything else front-end-y. My concern is that we already have quite a lot of lists, and while I think it's good that we've been in an expansionist phase, the downside is that each list balkanises conversation.
