This idea is far from crazy. The two
lists are redundant and competitive.
Ther secular existence complicates
the overall communicative scheme.
A combination would relieve this
disparity and lead to a congealing of
those interested in using and moving.
The boost interest has already been
pegged as atrociously dwindling.
Two dwingling lists are worse than 1.
Until our comeback, of course, which
is forthcoming.

I had a crazy idea... we could combine the boost-users and boost
developers mailing lists into one (just boost dev). Since there is
little activity in the users mailing list this could help keep things
a little more lively.
Thanks
