Reorganizing the mailing lists web page

[Daniel Beck]

I hope that most new users who post here instead of the users list are just confused about the purpose of the respective lists ("I'm a developer, so I'll ask my question on the dev list") ...

So I changed the list of mailing lists on jenkins-ci.org:

http://jenkins-ci.org/content/mailing-lists

Major changes:
* Users list is now mentioned first
* Some lists (especially the dev list) now have longer and/or hopefully clearer explanations
* It now links to to smart-questions because there can never be enough references to it
* Separated sections for English and non-English lists to make the entire web page easier to parse

Old appearance for reference: https://web.archive.org/web/20150314230033/http://jenkins-ci.org/content/mailing-lists

Please respond if you want me to change anything/revert everything.

Much better, thanks!

+1, I've had a look and it's indeed better. 

Thanks

This looks good.

Would the jenkins team be interested in creating another mailing list

for employment, where people can post job ads?  Those kind of emails

are annoying for a dev or users mailing list.  However, those emails do

have value, and having a separate list for them might be OK.

Different topic, but IMO the legimate ones aren't numerous enough to really be annoying (or warrant their own list), and the spammers won't care. Just check the archives of the issues and commits notification lists.
