I think combining both mailing lists into one would be a good idea. It
should reduce confusion which list to use (-devel or -users) for sending
mail and more people would see patches flying by. Even if people from
-users list wouldn't start contributing to opensc right away, this might
attract some new developers.

Also, both mailing lists are rather low volume right now.

OpenSC is a library for other developers to use, and the same goes for
other projects hosted under opensc-project.org. OpenSC isn't something
that true end users like Aunt Bessie and Uncle Bob would knowingly use.
OpenSC users are almost always also developers (yes, maybe not _opensc_
developers, but developers nonetheless). I think it would only help
opensc cause if all these people read the combined list.
