I think having the developers list (as opposed to the user list) here at
eclipse.org makes sense, in particular as there are a few processes that
send mails to rdf4j-dev (committer elections through the Portal, for
example).

I don't know whether these processes can be configured to use a
different mailing list or whether they always use the eclipse.org list.
If the latter, every developer has to stay subscribed to both
rdf4j@xxxxxxxxxxx and the Google group to not miss out on anything.

Hope that helps.

Andreas
