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.
