Similar to others, I don't think this is a good idea to have two lists. 
I don't really see the rationale for such a setup except if you would 
like to encourage cross-posting which I'm sure you don't want.

Is it for keeping away the interested reader from the (boring) 
day-to-day management of the group (telecon agenda, actions tracking, 
etc.) and hoping that only core discussions will happen on 
public-lld@w3.org? Then you're wrong. People will never know to which 
list to post ... they will either cross-post or you will have bit of 
discussion on one list and the rest on the other. People are smart 
enough to filter down and don't read messages that they don't care (e.g. 
the weekly agenda).

In a nutshell: keep it simple. Use ONE list, public!
