There's now https://lists.apache.org/list.html?mynewt.apache.org announced
publicly last week at ApacheCon, which is slated to replace the existing
interface.

What we in the Incubator have observed over the years is that when podlings
are just starting out and trying to expand their communities, it is better to
have all the user questions on one list.  Thus the default for new communities
is a single list.  (Here's the advice page:
<http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/MailingListOptions>.)

Eventually a community may grow to the size that it needs a separate user
list.  There's no exact threshold, but eventually it becomes clear.
