Given the popularity of this thread, I suggest creating a centos-meta@centos.org list, where folks can discuss list-related stuff.

CentOS is supposed to be a community supported distro unlike the one where some guy respun it for his library and so could do whatever he wanted.
Fedora has not seen a need to split the main list but has addressed the problem of OT posts or posts without research in the wiki page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate Upstream/Fedora may be blamed by some but the way they have handled this is real professional.
Who would like the mailing list to be as fragmented as the CentOS forum? Fragmentation means erosion of the userbase and is not good for the community.
