I used to have a filter on "(OFBIZ-" to redirect to my OFBiz Jira folder. 
Having a specific list is easier indeed.

I strongly suggest to stay with the split between notifications@ and dev@.

It makes the dev@ discussions a lot better to follow, these would drown
in the Jira notifications. I suspect that we would make users
unsubscribe dev@ if we would have notifications@ in there also.

If people are interested in getting the notifications, they can
subscribe anytime. It might be reasonable to encourage people in the
dev@/user@ lists to subscribe there if we believe they are not aware of
the notifications@ list.

Hi All,

Back in 2016 it was decided that notifications go to the separate mailing
list [email protected]. See [1]. And looking at latest numbers
reported regarding subscriptions to our mailing lists, we have:

     - user@: 926
     - dev@: 574
     - commits@: 218
     - notifications@: 78

The numbers regarding user@, dev@ and notifications@ are from
2018-06-20,
and the number regarding notifications@ is from 2018-03-20, see [2].

The numbers indicate that about 14% of our contributor potential
subscribed
to the dev@ sees these notifications about bugs and improvements, and
less
than 9%  of our greater community  (subscribed to user@) are reached.
And
when we factor in the impact of PMC members and committers (I can only
guess how many of those have subscribed) on notifications@) the ratios
are
even worse.

The effect of the low number of subscriptions to notifications@ is that
we
don't reach our potential and that we don't see the input of dev@ and
user@
subscribers, leading to an overload of those working tickets.

Did we take a wrong turn back in 2016? And should we not revert the
resolution of the vote to have notifications go back to dev@ to get more
contributions (potentially leading to more - active - committers that
share
and lessen the work load?

What do you think?
