It would seem the problem is not just volume but that the volume covers the entire spectrum of skill level. .Net is such a new technology that most people who use this list are interested in all aspects (ADO.Net, ASP.Net, Winforms). This would indicate that partitioning along technologies would be a mistake. I think the only logical thing to do is partition along skill levels with possible moderation. I know we currently have an advanced dotnet list but very few people use it. I think we need a dotnet beginner list. That list would be for the "how do I make this control fill the client area of my app" beginner.
This is certainly not a slight because we were all beginners at one point, but doing this would reduce the volume on this list by 1/2 at least.
