Not sure where you get your numbers from, and I have no idea what you
are trying to say here, but php-general has 2954 subscribers, not 787
and internals has 837 (including digest users). And then of course
there are a lot of people who use the nntp gateway and other mailing
list gateways.
I meant internals@, not php-general. I refer specifically to people who are subscribed as those who are more hard-core than others. If you just read the digest occasionally or read it over the web, it's usually meaningless.

I read internals using Gmane and I check it pretty much every day. The only reason I subscribed (if I did in fact subscribe) was so that I could send replies.
