I know I'm responding to a rather old email here, but...

Subscribing to a RSS feed is not a good method for me. I read so many  
blogs on so many devices that my subscriptions are never quite in sync  
from device to device and it's easy to miss things. I know there are  
services out there to make this more consistent but I'd rather not  
rely on a "pull" mechanism like a blog for this.

I feel it's best for important security software to have an email list  
that sends out just the relevant information so that people who want  
to be notified when action is required or suggested can be notified in  
a way that's going to be read quickly - and in my case that means  
getting an email on my Blackberry.

I've tried staying subscribed to the mailing list, but there's a lot  
of traffic here (as I expected) and not a lot that I need to be paying  
attention to, so it's easy for something important to get lost.

Please, please, please consider having just an announcement mailing  
list! This is typical practice for most security related services and  
programs that I've seen. It would help me a lot, and it's not a lot of  
extra effort to maintain as it's usually possible to subscribe the  
discussion list to the announcement list so that announcements  
automatically get sent to the discussion list.

Thanks,

Brian
