This recent deluge of policy issues has made me wish for a new list, "policy". I try to read -hacker in moderately real time in case a fellow -hacker is in trouble. The discussion of digesting the lists is disconcerting. I bet 80% of this list is not "Technical discussions and suggestions". I've been guilty of this in the past, and am being guilty of it right now. Yes, I thread the articles and skip the ones I don't want, but I'm afraid I might miss something that got sent with the wrong subject. If we had a policy list for non-hacker related stuff, then I could read it at my leisure or unsubscribe (which I probably wouldn't do but some people might). It is hard enough to try to keep up with -hackers, -current, and -commit, which is the minimum for trying to technically help out and develop at the edge.
