Hi -

If we add GitHub Discussions then I think that dev@ should be informed when a 
Discussion is started and closed while commits@ should get the comments. If we 
decide to add an issues@ mailing list then we need two volunteers for mailing 
list moderation.

https://infra.apache.org/mailing-list-moderation.html

I already moderate a large number of mailing lists. Mostly you will simply 
ignore some regular spammy phishing attacks.

Regards,
Dave
