I don't understand the current rationale for a single CentOS users' list; probably in times past it was sensible, but I think the time has come for splitting the list by release.
I'm speaking from my own perspective, but I'm sure others have similar stories. How many users use all CentOS releases?
I totally agree John - as CentOS gets more popular i too have found myself using 'Mark folder as Read' too often.
If this list were split into one for each release, then subscribers could choose which email they see. At present, it's all or none, and neither suits me.
My worry would be the increases in cross-posting, and maybe the need for centos-general, but i guess these can mostly be posted to a CentOS(max_version) list.
A point that may mitigate the need to act now: I have seen the volume of mail surge about t-2_months before the launch of v5 - and i wasnt here for the launch of 4.0 -> 4.4, but would you not expect a lot of noise to dissipate soon now we are t+2_weeks?
Thats my 2c worth.
