I'd have to suggest that the 'default' list (eg this one) should be the most general and beginner oriented, and any new additional lists should be the ones with the narrower focus (centos-tech, for instance, or centos-sysadmin).
Narrower focus? Why? Why should there not be a general advanced user oriented list which seems to be one of the reasons why people holler OT here!
in my experience with running multiple lists, unless there's a near-nazi level of 'DO NOT CROSSPOST' enforcement, half the traffic will get crossposted all over the place anyways when you split lists.
I vote leave it alone. it ain't broken, lets not 'fix' it.
It is not about 'fixing' it...it is about letting people discuss things that are considered OT for the centos list but yet related to people who use Centos in whatever environment they may be.
