To help prioritize the list migration efforts, I've collected numbers from the legacy OOo lists. Looking at 2011 posts, year to date, these are the average posts/day for the most-used lists.
I've arbitrarily cut-off the lost at lists having more than one post every other day. There are 332 lists overall that I could find, most of them getting little to no traffic. To put these numbers in perspective note that our ooo-dev list averages 59 posts per day. So we know what that traffic feels like. If we add up all of the top 100 OOo lists, excluding the Bugzilla notifications, they add up to 62 posts/day average. So I think this argues strongly for list consolidation. Direct all user-related lists to ooo-users and project-related lists to ooo-dev.
