This is an  artificial distinction. Are developers not users? Can a  
user not be a developer? How would you expect the content of mails to  
differ between these lists?

What would be the purpose of such a split? It's not like this is a  
busy list. Usually one considers this when a list becomes too busy to  
follow, although it would have to be really busy to be too much for  
even a moderately experienced list user.

So I guess  vote "no" to a split as currently mooted.

If there just has to be split for some reason, then I would suggest a  
"technical" list, and a "chat" list. A discussion about whether the  
list should be split for example, would fall under "chat".
