You bring up a good point, for those people that only use numpy or scipy then it makes sense to have separate lists. I have no problem with the lists as they are now. I also tag them differently so I tend to focus first on numpy then scipy-dev and finally scipy-user. For the most part people do post to the correct list so usually there is no confusion. Usually scipy-user tends to be very different from the other two but I do not see many major numpy threads that would really be the same as scipy-user. Also I think scipy-user has it's own vibe as well as scipy-dev being different than numpy list.
