There are quite a few different tools that seem to scrape the centos-announce output in order to get update metadata; therefore should we announce every update since the 6.0 release date upstream ? we might be looking at around 5 million emails being generated outbound...

if not, what are the other options / ideas ?

Not sending them could break those tools. People who dont want to have the mails are free not to subscribe. Subscribed people who really care could temporary turn off the delivery of mail which is possible with mailman.
