Plucker-team was set up because plucker-dev bacame subscriber-only (due to spam issues, and evil spamcop in particular), and is now moderated; plucker-team is (and was) neither. The moderation stuff I took on because I thought it would make plucker-dev more approachable, but if the load of messages I have to moderate gets too high then I can always refer people to plucker-team, which is unmoderated.
I think that the plucker-team/plucker-dev distinction is best in terms of keeping the -dev moderation managable and free of spam for the majority of interested people, while still allowing non-subscribers easy access to a few developers who don't mind getting spammed occasionally. (The spam thing became a big issue when my company was blacklisted after a subscriber told spamcop that we were spamming them, when the spam actually came from the list... well, what can ya do).
