Ben, have you tried using the gmane newsgroups to read the list? Skipping the messages you aren't interested in reading doesn't take much time at all. Heck, even if you get the list as e-mail, you don't have to read every message, just delete the ones you don't want to read. And the bandwidth argument is no good. I am on 56k, and most of the time 2/3 of that bandwidth is being consumed by my cooker mirror script, and downloading the messages for the changelog and cooker lists from gmane still takes a trivial amount of time.
Put simply, these kinds of splits being proposed would make it take *more* time to read the list, for those of us that have found an efficient way to do it. The worst idea is killing bugzilla mail. I am not going to take the time to get myself CC'ed on every bug that seems interesting. Some bugs you don't know are interesting until halfway through their life. It'll only reduce Bugzilla's effectiveness. Ben Reser wrote: [some stuff]
