I have personaly no strong feelings to either way too. I'm using GMail's web
interface, which has pretty great system of filters/labels and thanks to the
subject strings like REVIEW or BUG it's pretty easy to filter. However,
there are people who do not use GMail/KMail and might not have this
filtering possibility. Then it makes sense to separate the ML to
kde-telepathy-devel and kde-telepathy-bugs for example. Also there might be
people interested only in discussions etc and not in bugs (though they
should be interested in them as well :P), so that's another pro.

If we should vote, I'd probably vote for separation (to make it easier for
others).
