I think the question was more, "If I send a patch to only darcs-users@ will
David notice the email?"  People, myself included, are not sure if you see
messages where you're not in the CC.  I suspect it's just that you assume
you can ignore it unless you're in the CC, which means you read some but not
all of the darcs-user discussions.  I think a related concern is that some
of us worry we might be spamming you if we intentionally put you in the CC
too often :)
