I second that. 
Certainly on first look it is great to have less traffic on a specific list. 

However already now many questions on the mailing list are not replied to at 
all. Since ownCloud does not have someone in a position like a community 
manager or something I would expect that problem to increase. Most developers 
would communicate only over the dev list. So even less people would care to 
check the other list. This would be a very bad sign to users and people being 
interested. It signals: go away, you annoy us. 
ownCloud claims to be a project for a community and based on a community. 
In my eyes this means ownCloud has to take care of managing that community. 

Just my two cents...
