Can you leave an entry for "Developer Mailing List", but point it to pandas-dev mailing list?

Would you have "Users Mailing List" and "Developers Mailing List"?

I'm -1 on adding pandas-dev in the home page, a bit concerned about start getting spam of newbie questions there, because of the confusion on what's pandas developer means (contributor vs user)

That's a risk, but I have the feeling that the mailing list is now so unknown, that we don't get any spam questions, but also hardly developer related questions

100% agree on that, I'll add it to the "contributors" page, highlighted and immediately after it's clear that that part of the docs is for people who want to make pandas better, not use pandas.

I think that should be a good trade-off.
