I have rather hard as a mentor in the Incubator now that all new projects use 
GitHub. Much development discussion is driven away from dev@project mailing 
lists and occurs in issues(if enabled) and PRs.

comdev-site: https://github.com/apache/comdev-site/blob/master/.asf.yaml

notifications:
  commits:      comm...@community.apache.org
  issues:       dev@community.apache.org
  pullrequests: dev@community.apache.org

One - issues have not been enabled so that setting is meaningless to 
comdev-site.

Why add notifications@ when commits@ exists?

.asf.yaml allows:

  # Send new/closed PR notifications to dev@
  pullrequests_status:  d...@foo.apache.org
  # Send individual PR comments/reviews to issues@
  pullrequests_comment: iss...@foo.apache.org

So PRs could be split, but we are already having a split discussion of 
https://github.com/apache/comdev-site/pull/64

Tell me why a split discussion is good for the community?

All The Best,
Dave
