[DISCUSS] Merge *-user@hadoop lists?

I've been thinking that we currently have too many *-user@ lists (common,hdfs,mapreduce) and confuse folks all the time resulting in too many cross-posts etc., particularly new users. Basically, it's too unwieldy and tedious.

How about simplifying things by having a single user@hadoop.apache.org list by merging all of them?

Thoughts?

This is user lists, not dev lists. Today there's confusion about when to
mail hdfs-user, common-user and mapred-user; people end up mailing all of
them with calls for help

But then it will be overload of mail for user who do not want to get mails
for committ as well as mapreduce and hdfs.
