So, rather than renaming the lists can we just mentally perform the
translation that this list should actually be considered "issues@ " and the
other list should be considered to be "discuss@ " without actually renaming
and screwing up everyone's subscriptions?

Anything that isn't JIRA / review request / code review comment should go
to the other list (obviously this discussion itself should have been held
on the other list :-) )
