As a newbie (and lurker on the list) just beginning to learn advanced perl,
mod_perl, embperl, and many of the other perl modules available, I read almost
everything on the list. It is just a way of not only learning mod_perl, but to
see how it integrates with everything else. It is not necessary to read every
single message. Just scan the subjects... if you see a pointless thread or
flame war, just select those and press 'd'. Or set up filters...
If you want to see an example of list breakup, look at how many debian lists
there are.
