Its pretty easy to add both tags to the content filter for documentation so
don't let that worry you. I am happy to help you out there- being a dev-ml
admin :)

I also think its a good idea to merge the MLs because devs should be just
as involved in documentation as docs people are in knowing what's being
actively developed. More critical now too that the docs have largely been
integrated into the project repos.

You have my +1 :)
