Nope. I cannot possibly keep up with [email protected]. Haven't been able to for *years*. There is an active user community that help each other out, including many of the devs. Just not me. For reference: * Subversion created its dev list in April 2000. * The user list was created in July 2003. 238 messages were posted that month. As you can see, we waited a very long time before sending users to their own list. Our dev list was very heavily trafficked by our users. It kept the larger community together until the point where they could safely work on their own.
