I don't like the fact that bug jars are sent "several at once", but I
can just select all these mails and archive them at once - no big
problem. Maybe you can merge them into one single mail per week? On
the other hand, if people are really bugged about this, I can see two
options:

* Have a separate announcement type mailing list (where only you can
post), i.e. maemo-bugjars / meego-bugjars
* Have an RSS feed that is not aggregated by planets

We should then make sure that these resources are prominently linked
(e.g. from the Bugzilla start page, the QA wiki page, etc..).

And another consideration: Create a Twitter/Identi.ca account
("maemobugs"/"meegobugs"?) and feed them with your RSS content using a
service like Twitterfeed, so people can also follow it via
microblogging clients. If you have more time, script it so that the
Twitter account spits out one or two facts (a different one) every day
(i.e. "Feature request with most votes this week (+4): Portrait mode -
http://bugs.maemo.org/1234";). This might make more people click on a
single bug report and check it out / vote for it / comment on it than
if you just link to the general bug jar page where people have to skim
through the whole document to read something.

HTH.
