I'm thinking I'll move -general (and the useless -novice) to another folder.
But I'm left wondering what to do with -admin and -performance. They're a

with -general but that means I won't be likely to see any development
discussion on them in the future
There shouldn't be any dev discussions on them as it is ... that isn't their
mandate ... those are/were meant to be end-user lists, not developer ones ...
We know from experience that doesn't work. People just end up
crossposting, because they're not sure people are on both lists. And
then you want to move a discussion, which just means you have to CC in
both lists, leading to even more duplication.
If there was a clear distinction between end-user and dev it might
make sense. That how commercial software companies tend to work -
don't let devs talk to end users. That's not how we work. Forcing
people to look in different places just throws hurdles in front of
those trying to help out.
What *are* you talking about? This doesn't seem to have anything related
to what I said :)
All I was saying was that -performance and -admin are not development
discusion lists, not that developers aren't subscribed / talking on them
... that doesn't make them any less end-user lists ...
