So far, AFAIK, there are no "users" who are not also either  
developers, or at least interested to still receive the development  
mail.

In addition, the project is still at such an early stage that at  
least some of the developers would want to know what users are  
running into, and what ideas the users would have.

Your idea is a good one in principle and it is just a question of  
what is a suitable time. I think that as soon as three or more people  
found a good reason to want to share discussions that the -devel  
subscribers would rather be split off, we could create the list. At  
this stage, most people on -devel may rather not need to be on a  
second list so would prefer them collapsed.

BTW we *used* to have 2 other lists "gnumed-updates" and "gnumed- 
announce" but they disappeared from the gnu listing, perhaps being  
auto-deleted from non-use (it must have been a couple of years since  
they enjoyed a bit of experimental use).
