It would be nice to have the mailing list on https://lists.ubuntu.com this will bring Lubuntu on par with the other official derivatives and may make it easier for people to find, and subscribe.   
What would be the difference be between the user and devel lists?  Having the two often leads to cross posting when there is a relatively small development team and user base.  This can be seen on the LXDE lists.
