I would take the stats regarding mailing lists in Whimsy as a guiding line.
More often than not the dev mailing lists is having the higher number of
subscribers. But then again, it also depends on the message to convey.

In general, one could say, the dev list is for the parties interested to
work with the product from a development perspective (and its technical ins
and outs) and thus potential contributors. Those who subscribe to the user
ml tend to be 'just' interested in the product, and could come from all
kinds of professions, like industry observers, influencers, but also
potential adopters in the various business sectors/domains.

Long story short, I would communicate internal stuff (project/product
oriented) to dev, and the more high-level and 'promotional' stuff to user.
And there will always be a trade-off based on the what to communicate.


Best regards,

Pierre Smits
