I agree, having all those lists is just silly when you look at our
number of developers. And with not everyone subscribed to all lists some
discussions just don't get noticed by all people whom it may concern
(that's why i forwarded the mail about spell format change to
sm-grimoire).

I would guess the easiest way to start is to agree which lists to use
and just stop using the others. Personally i think we could just move
everything to sm-discuss.
