While this sounds like a good idea in principle, I don't really
think it will work well. I have seen this happen on a few other lists and
what seems to happen is:
* Threads start on one list then "migrate" to the other, so you
normally need to subscribe to both.
* 500f the participants post to the wrong list (witness the number
on this list who accidentally reply to the list rather than another list
member).
* Additional "management" required on behalf of the person who
maintains the list.
All of this IMHO.
