In general, the example of something like gtk-devel-list is probably
useful - if you have a question about *using* the GTK+ library as a
developer, then a GNOME devel list is probably appropriate. If you have
a question about the actual implementation, then gtk-devel-list is the
right place. I see Hildon as similar - hildon-devel-list could be "the
mailing list for the developers of Hildon", maemo-developers would be
for "developers building on the Maemo platform" - which, of course,
includes libhildon*.

Cheers,
Dave.
