To be honest, I am somewhat confused by the naming of the lists.
If I understand correctly, the intent of the new lists are

OE-private: core-team.
            All the other projects I know of would call this list
            FOOBAR-devel

OE-devel: rest of the world.
          All the other projects I know of would call this list
          FOOBAR-users

Is there any reason for this strange (that is: non-standard) naming
scheme?  Is OE-private meant to contain really private (confidential?)
traffic?  If not, I'd guess many people (like me) would mis-interpret
the intent of this list.
